So I have a windows 7 computer( custom made). When it boots, it reaches the point where it should ask for the password, but instead only a black screen and the mouse show and then it abruptly restarts( same in safe mode). Also there is no BSOD. This happened last night too, so I reinstalled windows. After the reinstall it booted fine, but this morning again the problem resurfaced. It is stuck in an infinite boot loop. I must add another point. When this problem initially showed up last night, I was able to boot into safe mode, and in the regular boot mode a BSOD was showing. But now both are not happening. Also I didn't install any new hardware. Another point, this problem showed up again this morning after I accidentally banged the CPU with my foot. I thought it was because of the expansion cards so I removed the wi fi card and the graphics card, but still the problem persists. I don't want to reinstall windows, it is the last resort. My computer's specs are: intel e7400 CPU, radeon HD4850 with catalyst 13.3 installed, d link n150 wi fi card, 2 seagate barracuda HDDs. I am a computer geek myself and this has totally baffled me. Let's see if someone here can solve this. Thanks for reading.
Edit: the safe mode drivers stop loading at disk.sys, if that's relevant.
