Hey everyone,

System:
DFI Ultra Infinity 939 w/ latest nvidia nf4 drivers
Opteron 144
Maxtor 250gig
1gig Corsair Select
ATI 850XT

New computer reboots when the ethernet cord is plugged in.

Had a new system working fine for a friend at my home, and transfered many gigabytes over the network to his computer. Now, when he has the computer at home, games and everything work fine, everything is fine, but when the computer is connected through the router to the cable internet, it reboots within a few minutes.

I've never run into this before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Adam
 
No nothing like that, just a quick reboot. I haven't seen it personally, but it sounds like he clicks on something to download and it reboots.

I'm thinking it is possible that it is the power supply. However, the PSU is brand new, and it is a Forton 400watt, supposedly a very good one. Plus, it doesn't struggle playing games, which I assume would take up much more power.

Perhaps there is a BIOS update available?

Any suggestions?
