Ok, I used to be in to computers quite a bit but have had time in the past couple of years. So this may seem simple to some seasoned veterans but bare(sp?) with me.

My computer likes to reboot when I am on certain websites and playing certain video games. If I go to Ebay it reboots immediately. Then on other sites it will let me browse for a few minutes then reboot all of the sudden. One time when it rebooted XP gave me a message saying there was a driver conflict. I checked the Device Manager and didnt see anything. Is there a way to figure out what driver is causing the problem? I have updated all my hardware drivers and that didnt work. I also downloaded Advance Windows Care. It found lots of problems and fixed them but none that fixed the main problem of the computer rebooting. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Here are my system specs if you need them.

AMD 1700+XP
80GB WD HD
LG 48x24x48 CD Burner
Generic DVD player
BFG 5700LE 256MB video card
Sound Blaster Audigy sound card
D-Link DWL G520 Wireless card
FC AN17 Motherboard
2700 512MB Ram
350watt PS

Have you checked the power supply readings for problems ?

Have you tried another power supply ?

I have not tried another power supply. At the moment I don't know anyone I could borrow one from. And what exactly do you mean by the readings? If you are talking about a voltage meter I sadly dont have one at the moment.
