A possible fix for hopeless Archos7's that wont stop restarting

Well I recently had a Archos7 that would not stop resetting when I booted it. The damn thing would reboot the second I touched the screen, and in some cases before it could even boot. I'm not sure if this will solve others problems but I simply put a new rom (Update.img) on an SD card and the moment it booted (took a few tries) I slipped the card in and quickely hit the Update button before it had the chance to reboot and just like that, it worked perfectely.
