I had Trouble about 5 times with getting into Windows I couldn't get in untill I changed the socket for the power cable I did it 5 times, but I don't think that is all that is causing the problem Every time, after these problems, Computer went into Safe Mode ,and I had this message that said - Window hang up during last boot because CPU speed is not adjusted Can You tell me is my CPU speed allright by checking the information that I can give you from CPU-Z and Sandra Software? Can I post screenshots of Cpu-Z and Sandra,(and how to, if it is possible) and what other information is needed? |

We need to know what processor and motherboard. Newer motherboards usually have the processor FSB setup in the Bios while some older ones have a jumper on the board.

Is there a battery on your motherboard? If it's old, I'd suggest replacing it. Then set you CPU speed in the BIOS and boot.
