Today I get on my computer, its been screwing up lately and and i restart it. All is fine until where it would enter Windows, it just shut down without saying anything. Major driver problems no idea how it got screwed up it just did. I panic to all hell and i use the handy system recovery disk and i reformat and reinstall windows. Problem solved all drivers back and everything is fast and effective with more space than i know what to do with.

You should have went into safe mode and done the restore option from there. Keep tapping f8 when booting up to get the safe mode option. Then follow directions. Next time try that.

Well, you already reformatted, so no fix can be used now, but do you think it could of been an overheating issue?

I had to computers and the only time I had to reformatwas when I got 57 viruses at once. put Norton in before starting up my computer and it took 3 hours to clean out my computer lol. Like every file was infected.
