Windows installed okay, but about every 5 minutes, i get a BSoD and the computer restarts on its own.
could it be the power supply? i have a thermaltake case and i'm using the provided 430W supply. I know it's probably not great, but the amps provided at the different voltages seemed okay.
someone also mentioned the nvidia firewall drivers for the nforce4 chipset were bad so i'm going to try to update all the drviers for n4.
one more thing i am considering is my HD, although i ran chkdsk and scandisk with no errors..
any other ideas?
 
It's unlikely that your hard drive would be causing a blue screen. Next time it happens, please post the error that you received (include any driver names that it references) It could be heat related as well, did you use an appropriate amount of thermal compound? You should definitely update your nforce drivers to the latest version.
 
ok, well with the suggestion of othe rpeople, i reinstalled windows WITHOUT the nVidia firewall and other software...
so to all people experiencing similar problems on a clean install using a nforce4 motherboard... take heed.
