Random Reboot

[markjonesx]

Hey, I seem to have a little problem, every so often my computer reboots on its own.

Any suggestions as to why?

More info.

Are you overclocking?

What OS?

What size power supply?

That should narrow it down, its usually related to PSU ...

Welll i see you got a hell of and overclock on that system going...

Bump up your core voltage, and possibly your memory voltage a bit...

If not its most likely power supply.

Lets add:

1) What are your temps?
2a) Have you tried running @ default clock? (And memory timings)
2b) Underclocked?
3) Have you tested your memory?

OK, I don't overclock, I dont know how to!

How do I change my voltages, seems like a good place to start.

Actually telling us your temps and testing your RAM is the best place to start.

CPU 24C
MBO 36C

Read about 10C higher in Bios.

I would actually bet money that this problem is with your power supply. That CPU temperature is suspect (too low, even at +10 degrees), but even if your CPU were really baking you ought to be noticing some other stability problems besides the reboots. As for the RAM, I guess anything's possible but for me, bad RAM has always caused weird crashes in programs, windows blue screens, even hard lockups, but never random reboots. Try replacing your PS with a known working unit, or even just upgrading to a quality supply. Antec, Fortron, WPS, Sparkle, Enermax... just be sure its rated 350 watts or more.

You don't overclock?

In your sig it says you have a 2600+ (2ghz) @ 2.6

I think he means 2600+ @ 2.083ghz @ 2600+ :/ ,which in other words 2.083=2600 i think hes thinking of amd pr rating.
