Hello all.
Not sure if I'm in the correct forum or not, but Acer pc's are not to popular.
Anyway, I was giving a Acer Veriton 3200 ( win98se, 64 ram, PIII 900mgz) to fix.
As soon as it get to windows and ask for a password, I then hit cancel and it will go to the desktop for like maybe a minute, the reboot.
Funny thing is, I can get it to load up in safemode where I then install antivirus and spyware stuff which it finds a lot of spyare and some virus's and get's rid of most of it, but it still will not load in to windows.
I tried different ram, different hard drives to do a clean install, different power supplys and the same thing, as soon as I get into windows desktop on 98, it will reboot.
I even tried to install windows xp, but I don't even get through half of the install and it keeps rebooting..
I'm really stupped on this. Maybe a bios virus? Who knows, but I've tried every thing I know what to do.
Any info on this would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks.
Mitch
