Tap the F8 key when booting up. This brings you to a screen with different options. Choose Use last known good configuration. this should solve the problem. Your system is stuck in a loop.

NTLDR is missing to restart Ctrl+Alt+Delete booting file

Either your hard disk drive or the controller on the motherboard is bad or your OS (operating system software,i.e. Windows 7) is corrupted and needs to be re-installed.

Dell Optiplex GX280 restarts suddenly? all files closed and . the restart could be after 2,3 minutes of power on. I don't know why its behaving like this?

Hi, sounds like a crash, do you get any report messages after reboot? Try starting in safe mode; press Del button during initial bootup, once in safe mode you can reset to a time before the problem started. Hope this helps, if not come back to me?

I have a dell optiplex gx280. when i try to play video from any site, it reboots. changed monitors and same problem.

It is not a Monitor Issue. It seems to be an issue with the Video Card (if any) or the Drviers installed for the Video Card. Try reinstalling the drivers for the Video Card and also flash the BIOS for the same. You cal also change the setting in BIOS inorder to stop restarting the system on any errors.

For any further support please call Dell Tech support @ 1-800-624-9896

Got a dell optiplex GX260 which keep on restarting.

Check your fan oover the processor and make sure its spinning. Next check if the heatsink is dirty then and clean it if necessary. If you do not feel comfortable opening your computer up, take it to a repair shop and explain the problem to them.
