So for the last two months my PC has been rebooting itself about once a week. Sometimes i can be on it all day till it happens and others it will happen within an hour after turning the PC on for the first time. I did go for almost three weeks without a reboot but than it started up all over again recently.

At this point i don't know what the heck it might be. I did remove the PSU and tried the PSU that came with the computer and it still happened. Someone told me that it was a software issue but how do you even go about figuring out which software it might be.

Hope you all can help me cause this is driving me nuts. Also would like to figure it out before something gets seriously damaged.

This is what even viewer shows:

I read in another forum where a guy said his audio drivers where to blame. He said that in device manager it showed three so he disabled two of them and it fixed his problem. I checked and mine showed three so i have disabled two of them and will see how it goes. Hopefully it will work for me as well cause at this point i have no clue what else to try.
