Re: Compaq TC1000- Reboot on Screen rotation while keyboard mounte

Hi,

Can you right-click on "My Computer" and choose "Properties". On the
Advanced tab click the button under "Startup and Recovery settings". Uncheck
the box "automatically restart" under the "system failure" heading.

Now repeat the operation you were performing before that caused a restart.
You may get a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death). Please post the information you
see on the screen when that happens.

Thanks

Cheers
Ken
