Abit KR7A-RAID

[Moemar]

I'm not sure what forum this should be going under, as i'm not even sure it's a problem with my motherboard. Every week or two, my computer spontaneously reboots in windows. I haven't found any connection with any activity when it reboots, but it's happened twice when i'm in IE. Any suggestions?

The slots for memory modules in KR7 boards are pretty tight. I suspect that a memory module is not really fully seated.

The pressure required to fully seat memory modules is such that I recommend you pull your board when you do this. You could damage your board by pushing hard on the memory modules with the board mounted in the case. While the board is out, I'd also firmly reseat all cards.

The other thing I'd check is voltages supplied by your PS, particularly the 5V rail.

Hope this helps!
