Endless Rebooting

Hello: I'm having this problem, a few weeks ago I reformated my computer and started fresh with all the updates and SP2. I also installed AVG antivirus, Spybot S&D, Ad-Adware, Prevx and MS Antispyware just to be sure. Everything was working fine until today whe the computer froze while surfing the net the it showed a blue screen telling it was dumping physical memory. At that point I reseted before it finished and from that moment it keeps rebooting just before starting windows. i tried to use safe mode or last good known configuration but same problem. Then I tried to repair windows using the system cd but it couldn't install some dll's files and now it tells me that the \windows\system32\config\system is corrupted and I need to repair it. My system is PIII 1GHZ, 512 ram, gforce 4400, a 40G HD and a 80GB HD plus two DVD burners and Two CD burners on a MSI MB with a 350W power supply (I suspect this is the problem but it was running fine) To finish I my system is always on and have a cable modem connection. Sorry for the lenght but is important to have all the details, thanks.

try this

Try uninstalling AVG. I recently loaded it on my computer and it started doing the same thing. I'm in the process of trying to find out why, because I'd really like to use the program. I thought it might be my AMD processor, but as yours is Pentium, that's kind of ruled out.

Good luck
