My System Keeps Shutting Down Randomly!

Oh, I just read yer post above... Yeah, I'm sure it's fine... I love gparted, it's great for resizing... In theory it shouldn't do anything different, but why not:) He could always delete all of the partitions and do a full format, that would take forever and make you want to slit your wrists...

it doesn't take THAT long, and i was thinking that it'd be better than him using the XP disc to format the drive and then cancel the XP setup.

Ok, so while in safe mode i disabled the following services via msconfig:
Apple Mobile Device
Bonjour Service

And I set quicktime not to open upon startup.

Now everything is working again... Hmm...

are you serious? crazy.

ok so my screen stoped working like 2 months ago(laptop) so i havent used it all this time. i have win 7 beta on it and it worked fine(i used it for about a month) and yesterday i bought a monitor for it. so anyways i tryed it at my bros house and watched some dbz videos i had on my hdd. n i went home (let my bro borrow it) n now he tells me that it keeps turning off n its exaclly what this guy is talking about it only works in safe mode. which is what i am using to write this. so im gonna try to take of the itunes things it says on 1 of the posts and c if it works. i hope so!
oh and i tryed restoring to win vista 2 times but it shut off

Ok, false alarm. It's still doing it, but much less frequently. andythecurefan, I downloaded Gparted and burnt it to a CD using magicISO but it won't boot up. I downloaded the official stable ISO for x86 systems and magicISO said it was bootable, so idk what's up. I'll figure out a way to format it though, because I think that is the root of all my problems. Everything was fine until I tried to do that. If it doesn't work this time then I'll just reinstall xp and wait for the official release of seven. And cry. A lot.
