This weekend, my computer spontaneously rebooted. This has never happened before on this machine. Previously when I've had this problem, it's always been a RAM issue. However -- it usually happens shortly after I build a machien due to faulty RAM. I've had this RAM from Crucial for almost 2 years now, so I find that unlikely.

A few minutes ago, it did it again.

When the computer restarted, Windows said a device driver caused the problem. I haven't installed any new drivers in quite a while. I went to Control Panel -> Adminstrative Tools -> Event Viewer.. but it's hard to decipher what I need to be looking for here to identify the problem.

Any help is appreciated.

Are you running a particular program or game when this happens? Any new software installations?
