Why does my AX350 sometimes keep restarting, fail to reach basic or menu screen, no matter how many times or how long I wait?

Is there maybe a sensor in the cartridge slot that’s supposed to reset the computer if you’re inserting a cartridge while it’s on (as a safety system, although it’s still dangerous to do), that’s not functioning properly anymore, triggering accidentally?
PSU problem?

not that, it is not a power off
Like software failure of some sort.
PSU problem?
Not electricity problem. The unit still continuesly running
Do you have tried to boot the computer while pressing the CTRL key? The AX-350 should start then in International mode without the Arabic characters and menu.

Yep I tried
It seems that there's a harddisk drive (IDE) connected to the computer. Can you make tests without this IDE connected?
Indeed. It seems it is always happening at the same moment, so I guess it's due to a program that's loaded at boot time or something (bad MSX-DOS?).

Even without that, still happens
