Please use punctuation. It makes it much easier to read. Go to your BIOS and disable all performance features and enable all stability features. You might want to consider just reformatting and reinstalling Windows.

Default re: computer keeps rebooting

You didn't explain fully what you did. You say you did a backup from DOS. Does this mean you tried cloning the drive and tried to boot from the cloned drive?

Just what did you do when you attempted a backup?
