Voodoo3-8

Turned on the computer and was asked how do you want to start windows. I
chase normallyIt then rebooted and asked the same question. I said normally.
It rebooted and asked the same question. I chose safe mode with network
support. I did a system restore to 2 days earlier when I know the computer
worked fine. All restored well. I shut down the computer normally, restarted
the next day and got the message how do you want to start windows. I did a
safe mode start and did a restore and am up and running. I don't want to turn
it off again for fear of getting this death loop again. What can I do to fix
this? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the good information. The problem was solved by removing software
by the name of Pivot Pro. This software is for turning a monitor from
landscape to portrait. The software apparently has a conflict with the
GIGABYTE M/B.

Thanks Again,
