Dear all, could someone please give me some advice for the problem of my desktop, many thanks!
It all originated from I connected my Iphone 5 to my desktop to tether it, everything was fine. yesterday I unplugged the iphone and answered a phone call. however, when I re-plugged the usb to the desktop, the desktop could not identify it.
Then I decided to restart the desktop, but I found I could not shutdown it normally, the computer kept saying "shutting down" but after one hour or two it was still there. so I had to manually switch off the power. In fact this happened before and it always turned to be fine after a hard restart.
However, this time something was going wrong. the symptom remained- the tethering worked for several mins in the beginning once I rebooted the desktop but soon it failed to work, and the desktop cannot be shutdown normally either.
Windows can detect a problem with the network adapter (not the iphone) but cannot fix it.
After several rounds of reboot, the situation went worse- the desktop now cannot even go into windows 7, it stopped at the loading bios stage (it is a Gigabyte DS3 for i5 mother board) and kept rebooting itself.
I am using a i5 cpu, and the network adapter is a PCI wireless with due antennas.
- meanwhile my iphone 5 works perfectly with my laptop.
Thank you so much mates!
