Windows Only Works In Safe Mode?
I have recently replaced my motherboard and cpu. my problem is that when the computer boots to the blue screen to chose a user and i click on one of them, the comp will restart just as like im pushing the reset button. I called ATI and they checked my chipset and said it was fine. Anyone know any solutions?

currently running:
Windows XP sp1
CPU- AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual
Core Processor 4400+
2.30 GHz
2.00 GB of RAM
Motherboard- K8M800 Micro AM2
Video- HIS Radeon 9550 258mb

Is the replacement motherboard of the same make and model as the old one? If not you will more than likely never boot intoWindows without errors. I would try a repair install of Windows and supply the correct drivers for the new hardware if the motherboard is different than the old one.
