Crashes in any form of recovery
I recently was fiddling with my graphics card for coin mining, moving them around, modding, etc. when windows decided to essentially shut down all services; aero stopped working, no internet, sound, even system restore wouldnt work naming a Volume Shadow Copy error (still wouldnt work after turning the service on). I actually had this same problem on another computer before and simply did a system restore through the boot up 'repair my computer' recovery tool.
However, this does not work for my desktop. The files load, I see the little green microsoft loading bar and even the first page of the blue background recovery screen only to have it crash a few seconds later. Computer just shuts off and turns right back on. This exact problem occurs even with a windows recovery disk. It seems as the problem persists through every form of recovery. I also tried all safe modes with successful booting but none allow for system restore.
Why is it doing this???
NOTE: When I was working with the graphics cards I did use a bootable usb drive with win98 dos. Both of my two graphics cards work fine individually yet using either the crashing problem continues.
I even just tried an old Symantec Recovery Disk 14 with exactly the same problem
