This is a coumputer[ pent 3 win xp} hardware problem i think? I plugged

a portable hard drive into my bus port{1 gig that you carry on a key

chain] and my computer blacked out. Now when i turn it on it takes2-10

minutes for it to start if it even does that. When i finally get it

running and i am working on it such as downloading a file{even offline}

it will black out and reboot. Does anyone know what could possibly be

wrong with it? [email protected] if you would like to send

me a answer? thank You

I had a "spontaneous reboot" problem a while back and it turned out to
be caused by the PC's power supply.

Look under the heading "Reboot - Windows Boots without warning!" a little way down the page (all topics are in alphabetical order).

My system doesn't auto reboot, but it sounds like your problem might be associated with your external hard drive and downloading files which is discussed in the thread.
