    reboot cycling on HP Pavilion tx1220ca tablet PC with Vista:

    I'm trying to do a recovery. I've got the recovery disc from HP for Windows Vista. I've put it in and followed all the instructions, but in the end, when vista is on there, it stays on for less than two minutes, then reboots the system, and repeats. Endlessly.

    Help!?!?!

    I've tried recovering 3 times now, with the same result.

    If you are able to view the Windows Desktop, disable automatic restarting by following the steps below:
    Click Start and then right-click Computer . Select Properties
    Click Advanced system settings , then select the Advanced tab.
    Under Startup and Recovery , click the Settings button.
    Under System failure , remove the checkmark next to Automatically restart .
    Click Ok to close the Startup and Recovery window, then click Ok to close the System Properties window, and then close the Properties window.
