Dear Gurus, perhaps a stupid q to you.
If a NT service failed with a critical error, the os reboot. Can this be stopped, if not, does it mean reinstall the whole OS is the only way out?
thanx ahead.

Maybe the recovery setting for the service.
Look in settings| control panel| administration tools | services . Select the sevice that is
dying and rebooting the machine.
Right-click and select Properties.
On Recovery tab, see what 'failure:' action is defined. (In the dropdown, 'Reboot the computer'
is one of the pre-defined failure actions.
Hope this helps,
Tony

Thanx Tony, though it is ok to adjust the service MMC, the machine will reboot before you have a chance to log on if one service's failure leads to the reboot(at the time of windows starting, preparing connecting...)
I met a machine several months ago, which keeps endless rebooting. (no time to log on). So I suspect a malfunction service leads to this error.
thank you for the replay anyway. Regards,
