Hello guys
For a few days i am facing a very annoying thing. Computer randomly restart for no reason. Sometimes when i am in Windows,other times when windows load, other times when PC POSTing, other times in bios menu and other times when you heard the first "beep" from CPU.

Now the problem become much worst and thats why sometimes i dont even hear the "beep" from CPU. When i got the PC I had a device that came with MOBO that is connected on it and by the combination that get from four leds (red and green) you may understand what the problem is. Something like the "Beeps". The problem is that when CPU is quiet when i turn on pc the combination is always something else. If i dont turn it off combination may change and finally start POSTing. But not always. If PC manage to turn on i get this message:

"Warning!!! The previous performance of overclocking is failed and the system is restored to the defaults setting. Press any key except "DEL" to enter SETUP"

I have that PC 5+
Any guess for what in hell is happening?

It could potentionally be the CMOS battery that's dead. Given the price of a battery and the age of the machine, presuming it has not yet been changed, this would be the first thing I would replace.

I don't think that 5+ is the real problem. I dont know if the gpu may cause that problem. We had at the past some issues with Gpu but not so serious as now.

Potentially, yes. By the sounds of it the battery is dying, hence the steadily worsening issues. It is likely the PSU is the cause but from my experience the PSU fails or works.

It is also possible that it could be a memory issue as issues with this can lead to stop errors and system crashes - even at boot. If you'd like to know more about troubleshooting memory issues, just let me know.

As said, it could very well be the PSU but changing the CMOS battery and swapping out the memory is a lot cheaper than replacing the PSU.
