Sounds like it's restarting in Safe Mode after a fault/error. Use Safe Mode to access the Auto Restart on Error feature and turn it off. Control panel>system>advanced tab>Startup and Recovery>uncheck Automatically Restart
This will allow a blue screen/error messge to appear the next time it crashes. Post the error message here and we'll help sort it out. |

Its possible the cd or the drive is dirty.
Is the XP cd an original or a copy of an original?

You likely have defective ram or a defective hard drive. You should run diagnostics on both.

Memtest86 (http://www.memtest86.com) is a good one. It catches alot of errors that other memory test programs miss.
