Hello. My mom's computer is glitching. She turned it on and it loaded normally until the desktop at which point the screen started trying to re-load repeatedly. Windows came up with an error message saying it had hit an infinite loop and to try restarting.
(Note: Unfortunately my mom did not write down A. the error message, B. the instructions should a restart not work.)
She restarted and the computer hit the same restart thing again on loading the desktop. This time it did not give an error message or instructions on how to fix it.
We restarted in Safe Mode and the blinking did not happen.
We thought it might be the video card, but if it's the video card, wouldn't it blink in Safe Mode as well as regular boot-up?
I was able to run HJT if that might help any?
Please let me know if anyone has any ideas. Thank you very much in advance.

Please write in proper English. This is a professional website and using words like 'coz' and misspellings make your post extremely hard to read and understand.
