I have a Soltek SL-75DRV5 and recently started having some problems. The problem is that my computer will suddenly reboot. I bought my MB about 1 month ago and it was running fine until 2 days ago. During this time the computer was turned on 24 hours every day. Then, 2 days ago, it started rebooting spontaneously. It would reboot, run for 5 or 10 minutes, and then reboot again, continuously.
MotherBoard Monitor reports all of the voltages as normal and the CPU temperature as between 48 and 51 degrees C. So, I think that temperature is not a problem. I also checked the BIOS temperature setting and it said the same thing, about 48 degrees. BTW, my CPU is an Athlon XP +1800.
I also checked the BIOS setting for automatic temperature shutdown but it was set to 70 degrees so I don?ft think this is the problem because it is only 50 degrees or so. I even tried turning off this BIOS setting but the problem still occurred.
Usually when my computer runs I'm running Prime95 (which really uses the CPU a lot). When I run with this program running my temperature is around 51 degrees. If I turn off this program so that my CPU is only 0% or 1% used then the temperature goes down to around 48 degrees. BUT, I think that 48 degrees is quite hot for the CPU when it is not used.
I also noticed that if I run my computer with Prime95 not running then my problem is OK and the computer does not reboot. BUT, this is very strange because I ran Prime95 for 1 month with no problems. Why is it now suddenly a problem?
Also, I will admit that the weather's been a little warmer here but only a few degrees. It's not like it's the middle of summer. The room temperature is still around 25 degrees C if not cooler. As for my case I have 2 intake and 2 outtake (including the power supply) fans. I'm pretty sure there is enough ventilation. Again I point to the fact that it was running fine for 1 month.
Any ideas????
