Re: pc reboots

Hi, it could be a heat problem, have you checked the fans inside your pc?
how many fans do you have?
does it go off sudenly or say "windows is shutting down"?
have you checked for dust inside the case? (as this can reduce airflow)

sorry for all the questions, it just helps us pinpoint the problem

Mike

Re: pc reboots

click start>rt click on my computer click properties go to advanced under "startup and recovery", click settings

in the system failure section, UN-tick the box that says automatically restart and tick the two above it...

This should give you a BSOD the next time it goes off, jot down the process and error code (e.g. 0x000007E)
