Computer boots up until the Windows Icon, then turns off.
Howdy.
Today I ran into an issue I can't seem to be able to track down (strictly speaking, it happened once a couple of days ago, but after rebooting it disappeared).
I turn the computer on, and it goes through POST; no problems there, both disks are detected. Then the computer starts Windows (8.1.1) proper, however all I see is the blue Window icon at the top of the screen. At this point the computer just shuts down entirely. I have no idea what's going on; it has been working fine so far. Also, this is a fresh-ish install (1 week old or so), with all drivers installed correctly.
Any ideas what's going on?
I'd rather not have to reinstall the whole OS again.
Thanks!
