i have a hp pavilion a647c and one day i went to up date with the auto updater when it updated it restarted then it would not stay started longer then ten seconds any suggestions


Does it keep wanting to reboot ?

Safe mode, and select disable automatic restart on system failure or select last good configuration.

Running windows 7? I've had it a few times after an update and windows won't load in normal or safe mode. Best way i found to fix it is to run the windows repair feature off the CD and then if it still doesn't work do a restore.

Have you tried your setup key (PF2 ?) to get into bios and see if your CD drive is set to boot 1st, before the HD ?

Then you probably have a dying or already dead CMOS battery.

Might try removing it, putting it back in, but suggest replacing it.
