I have just installed another GPU for crossfiring my system. All went fine and dandy when suddenly one day i am unable to load windows. It would hang at the logo and reboot. Did startup repair and system restore.
System restore does not work though, as once i reboot the system. same thing would happened again, to the point system restore 'gave up' and shutdown the pc
i have attached the zip file. any help much appreciated

Please fill in your system specs.
The first question I would ask is what happens if you take the second video card out? The second question would be what is the rating of your power supply? From your symptoms it is not powerful enough and needs to be replaced. This is a stab in the dark since at the time of posting I do not have your system specs. For 2 video cards you need at least an 800w or possibly 1000W depending on what else you have.
