Windows re-boots on start-up - WB5 beta problem
Friday, October 14, 2005 by Ian Nicholls | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Since updating to the latest WB beta - 4.90d[b].002 I have had the same problem twice. Whilst loading for the first time after the computer is switched on, Windows halts and the machine re-boots, causing Windows to perform a disk check as it re-starts. In each case, it detects a couple of errors in the files on Drive C, but different errors each time. The WB trouble-shooting report is as follows:-

I've uninstalled LogonStudio, and will see if this makes any difference. No the problem does not happen every time I switch on and, yes, I do have several partitions on two hard discs, but this has created no problems with any other software.

It looks like you're running programs off multiple partitions...this might cause additional problems.
By the way, thank you for including your startup registry keys, this is very helpful.
