Hi Dawnlee,
Yes that will stop the Restart but will not stop the Error or the problem!.

Try to look in the Device manager for Any malfunction Devices or conflict,
to access the device manager do the following:
Right click My Computer and select Properties then click Hardware Tab.
On Hardware click Device Manager, there Click on the [+] to expand to become
[-] and look for the sub-devices and see if there are any failed one or
conflict.
Look in the Event Viewer by Opening the Run Command and type in:
eventvwr click [OK] and there look for any Error messages (X) and double
click them to get more Info about the causer of the problem/error.
You could be done and dusted but to be sure the Error will not evolve to
major problem.
HTH.
Good luck.

Hi Dawnlee,
Well the Human Interface Device refer to an USB or External Drive or device
like your DVD writer is it External?.
Try to go to the services and make sure the Human Interface service started
Automatically or Manually, to access services do the following:

Open a run command and type in:
services.msc click [OK] there scroll down it will be in alphabetical
order to Human Interface service and start it.

Also in the Event Viewer you need to Double click the Error message to get
more Info about the culprit causing this error and you can copy and paste in
your next post, otherwise I don't know what this error is or what to do about
it!.
HTH.

Hi

I have a similar problem. Everytime I eject a CD from my laptop the screen
goes black and I need to shut down and reboot each time. The HID is disbaled
and I am not sure if I should enable this and if I do, should I make it
automatic or manual. I have several errors in the logs that you mention - if
I give you the codes in the Computer column, will you be able to advise what
I should so?
A second unrelated problem also - every now and then when I am on the
Internet it freezes. To correct this I hit Control-Alt-Del and when the Task
Manager box opens it unfreezes. I then shut the Task Manager box and go back
to using the Internet. Sometimes it is really bad and I am getting sick of
hitting C-A-D, so perhaps there is some way of fising this?????? Hopefully????
