KWestos Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 When users press CTRL+ALT+DEL to enter their logon details, the PC reboots! Anyone have any suggestions as I've never seen this before. Many thanks
ICT_GUY Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 The power button has been pressed whilst the computer is asleep.
cromertech Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 What keyboards do you have. I've found some students swapping key blocks with a blank plate that used to house power off, sleep, standby keys so that you think you are pressing del but you are actually pressing power off. Been trying to find an image to illustrate this but can't at the moment. I can take a photo to clarify if you wish
lbradley Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 It usually just happens when someone has pressed the powerbutton when its in screen saver mode, then when the user comes to use it taking it out of an idle state it'll just shut down
KWestos Posted July 1, 2009 Author Posted July 1, 2009 Just found the answer. The little darling(s) had pulled off three buttons from a Genius keyboard (Power, Sleep, Wake) and pushed one of the receivers (if that's what you call them) ever so slightly in the corner. Hence the re-boot. Many thanks for the replies!
