nellie2 Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Could you give us a bit more information? I'm assuming Windows 2K operating system? Is there a count down timer when they resart?... how long are they left idle for and is it always the same length of time? Have you checked that the computers aren't set to shutdown after a certain length of time of inactivity? Have you scanned the systems for virus's?

Scarecrow Man Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 Are you getting a warning before you crash? or does it just 'loose power'? or does it try to shut down and then restart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
