XP = very old , so could be anything including faulty hard drive viruses faulty hardware eg video card try msconfig and disable startup items one by one uninstall any crap sometimes at this age a reload is needed to clean out and start again see how annoying it is when its just one long sentence makes it hard to read . |

| 1441904 | 2017-11-16 10:59:00 | The most likely culprit is the power supply. I had a PC doing exactly the same, especially in cold weather ... it just turned on, turned off, turned on repeatedly until it warmed up enough for the faulty capacitors to stabilise I guess. A new power supply cured the problem. |
