System needs to reboot several times to boot problem.

[Reppyboyo]

Hi there,

I recently updated Windows via Autopatcher Nov 2005, and ever since it takes Windows several attempts to boot up from a cold start.

From hitting the power button it gets to the loading screen breifly then reboots to the "Windows didnt shut down properly" (whatever its called) screen, en which I have to wait for the countdown to finish for it to reboot, as my keyboard wont work at that point for some reason (probably because its a USB keyboard, not sure).
It may do this 2-3 times before finally booting into Windows, from here the system is fine and reboots without a problem.

Odd issue, anyone know where I can look to find a solution?
Any error logs or something?

Thanks.

you can view the error logs in administrative tools > computer managment > event viewer. try booting into safe mod and uninstalling that program if you think thats the cause.
