Windows 10: 64 bit Windows 10 1703 REBOOTS!

There is a pro and con of doing the upgrade first.
Currently you are having problems that could be fixed by the upgrade if the problem is the operating system.
There are people that are having problems with upgrades so it can add another layer of complexity.

So first lets see what happens with clean boot for a few days and then safe mode with networking.
And lets see the results of checking the operating system integrity with the sfc and dism commands.

If there is conflicting software that will need to be addressed.
If there is/are hardware/firmware issues they will need to be addressed.
And if there is/are operating system problems that can be fixed with an upgrade.

 

OK...I will keep my current OS for now and try Clean Boot.

 

Well, I know it has been a while but I am going to try the suggestions about clean booting. However, my msconfig already says selective startup...in fact all my systems do. I also notice that when I boot after powering on in the morning, it can take 15 seconds or so before the Windows Key will do anything! It the system is on for several hours, I can tell it to shutdown and it will. The fans go off and the system shuts down...and then in 10 seconds or so it restarts!

I still hope and think this is software or some driver that got loaded as it does not seem loke a powersupply or MoBo issue...YET!

 

If it's powering up 10 seconds after powering off, it must be in sleep or hibernate? Fast Startup is enabled for instance. Or your case power up or reset button is defective? If its actually fully powered down, no OS is loaded, its BIOS functions only. The only way it can boot up from a full shut down is with the case power button. If its in a sleep or hibernate state other things can trigger a boot up. Mouse or keyboard activity etc. It's still a BIOS function though, as far as I know. Drivers have no bearing on this.

 

Well, I can look at BIOS and see what my settings are. I had not changed anything that I can remember. This also does not explain the delay when I first boot before my Windows Key works.

 

Windows Fast Start Up, Turn On or Off Fast Startup in Windows 10 Not the BIOS Fast Boot. It's a hybrid sleep mode, that can cause issues when it doesn't work right.

 

Let me see what my settings are...

 

If possible please post the results of the steps in post # 12.
The DM log collector will automatically collect many files and post them on the desktop. These will include dumps, msinfo32, dxdiag, event logs, drivers, etc.
Run the DM log collector and post a zip into the thread:
BSOD Crashes and Debugging - Windows 10 Forums
Language - Add, Remove, and Change in Windows 10 General Tips Tutorials

 

I have not done much yet as I need to do some other things. I can get the Log Collector, but had not gone to the BSOD thread as I do not get BSOD's. This reboot issue is getting bad. I can run for a while and then click on a website area...the last time it was PayPal in chrome and I got the reboot! I also was on the Brother Printer site and had no issue. I had a question and clicked on the help button to get their phone number and got a reboot. I wonder if there is something in Chrome that got messed up. I am not sure if Firefox does the same.

 

The DM log collector will collect mini dumps and also many files on the computer useful for troubleshooting.
It is our automatic log collector and is useful when there are no bsod.
If you can post a zip using English as the default language we can then troubleshoot the logs.

 

GREAT...I will have a look!

 

I just d/l the log collector. Should I post the results in this string as I started it and I am not sure I need to start a post in the BSOD thread.

 

After running the DM log collector please post a zip into the thread.

 

Into THIS thread. Also, I need to d/l again as I believe Norton would not let me get it!

 

OK, here is the zip...
