Hello,
Recently I built a new computer, and I was trying to install Windows XP Pro Edition and it kept rebooting randomly on me. Well, I got throught the installation finally and everything seemed to be going smooth and great! I got to installing my games and everything and my computer just suddenly rebooted, so I thought eh maybe I did something to piss it off so I paid no attention to it. I got everything installed and went to play some Battlefield 2. I loaded up the game got everything set up then BAM! my computer rebooted again. Started windows back up and tried getting back into Battlefield 2 again, and then BAM! as soon as I started loading a map it restarted again. So, I figured maybe somethings wrong so I went upstairs and left my computer Idle, came back and noticed it restarted again. So hopefully someone can help me I suspect it is either my power supply or maybe my hard-drive. Heres my computer specs listed below:
Power Supply: 420Watt
MB: Asus P5N32-SLI Deluxe
Processor: Intel Pentium-Extreme Edition Processor 955 [3.46GHz, Dual-Core, 2x2MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB, 64-Bit]
Hard Drive: 200gb Western Digital (if it is HDD problems, will be soon getting 2 WD Raptor 74GB hard-drives anyway)
Memory: 2gb DDR
GFX: Nvidia gForce 7800 GTX 512mb
Also, I get no error messages or anything it just randomly reboots its the wierdest thing, it seems that it doesnt stay up for more than 20-25 minutes. Any help would be appriciated, thank you.
