    Unhappy Computer shuts off during boot up.

    I recently had leopard installed on a generic PC. Leopard was successfully installed, and everything worked fine, until I upgraded Quicktime. Then when I boot up the computer, it comes to the grey Apple screen and shuts down.

    I tried several things, including something that may not pertain to this problem.
    I can no longer find the code I used to TRY to fix the problem, but now instead of shutting off at boot up, It shows the graphic that tells you to hold down the power button.


    I have just starting learning coding aspects of computers, let alone with an Apple OS, so please bare with me.

    Yes I have tried:

    -v
    -f
    and -v-f

    all end the same, with the "your system needs to be restarted" message.

    Ok will do.

    I'm almost certain I didn't update the OS, but next time I will be more careful.


    Thanks for the help
