Hi Barrie, You will likely need some sighted assistance here. Right click on My Computer, and select Properties. In the Properties dialog, navigate to the Advanced tab. In the Startup and Recovery section of this tab click the Settings button. In the Settings dialog, go down to "Automatically Restart" and uncheck it. O.K. back out. Now, instead of rebooting, your system will stop and display the error. That's where it gets tricky because we need to know what it says there, and you may very well be left without speech, hence the need for a pair of eyes.
