ah yes, the dreaded restart problem. do you live in india and have an hcl?

i thought it was because of overheating, though i was not getting an overclocking error in the bios. so when the weather cooled down i called the men to clean it for me and it seemed to be fine. but now, a week or two or four (lost track of time now) later it is doing the same thing again.

i would have to have the worst power input in the world, but i am using a black box...forgot its technical name, but it gives me power surge protection and about five minutes battery backup so when the power goes i can save my stuff and shut down properly. but i would think it doesnt cover low voltage problems, which i have also.

i havent had the time to search the web on this yet, so if you find out anything more please post here and let me know and i will do the same if i get any information.

@len022182,
I'm scanning right now for something that had me shutting down as I came up again and again.

we'll see shortly what it catches...
