PC restarting

The_Goose

Ok my PC is constantly restarting all by itself, its diven my up the wall.
I rebuilt it back in september and it stopped but now its at it again.
Im losing my mind trying to figure it out.
Just did a system restore back to september but the problem continues.
Is there any log file that i can see that might have a clue to what is happening or software i can get that will record it?:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

"are you overclocking etc" is what he means i think.

Do you have a spare PSU floating about the place - could be the problem.
Do you get the Blue Screen of Death?
If so, could well be a page file or System memory issue.

I see this a lot when people upgrade their graphics drivers & direct X. Try a rollback or another version or an update.

No not over clocking at all.
It does it a random times.
Blue screen of death =
Mutiple_Irp_Complete_Requests
Stop: 0x00000044 (0x000000D62, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Are you sure your AV is up to date ?, sounds like Sasser symptoms

The_Goose

Not sasser think its a driver is there any way to check them?

try removing all PCI cards.

Also - try one of the many registry repair products out there.

If nots sasser then there is a option you need to un-check i cant remember but i think its in device manager. I'll check for you 2moro and if your still have the problem i'll post it up for you so you can check it.

Ye seek the Automatic restart feature perhaps:

Could be dodgy RAM. I've come across a few PCs with restart issues that were soley down to bad RAM.
