[QUOTE="Prorootect, post: 825836, member: 905"] Hi all of you, PROBLEM: PC startup trouble, Windows randomly booting computer, after each pressing the Power button, randomly shut off. Solved to me. __________________________ Special thanks to Tiny Watcher warning here: "Process imapi.exe : cannot obtain executable file's path" imapi.exe is a part of the Microsoft Windows operating system (Windows XP to Windows 10, maybe not present in Vista and Windows 7) - the Image Mastering Applications Programming Interface, used for CD recording. Corrupted imapi.exe, imapi.exe errors could be the cause of random booting after pressing the Start button of your computer, or Restart Windows, I think. The solution, which worked to me: [U]stop then restart IMAPI service.[/U] In the Start/Run window, type services.msc, then locate [U]IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service[/U] (French: Service COM de gravage de CD IMAPI). In Properties, change Startup type from Manual to Disabled, and reboot Windows. Now, you see that Windows boot successfully after each pressing of the Start button, no more failled PC boot. Then if you want (you can) to go back to the previous start setting of this service, revert change, in Properties window change Disabled to Manual, as I did (no more random Windows boot, all is OK, always, don't worry about reverting your change). Random no boot problem is solved - to me. Hope helping many of you. PS. oldschool, could you change the title of this topic, eg. "Windows startup trouble - random PC booting after each pressing of the Power button", please? [U] [/U] [/QUOTE]
