Hello

I just built a new PC and I'm having problems with random restarts. I just now discovered that I can force these restarts by opening 6-10 tabs quickly in my browser. PC will also restart halfway through the "rate this computer" to establish my windows experience index. Anyone know what could cause this? (edit*: PC also restarts when trying to perform a full system scan with AVG. I tried a full system scan in safe mode as well and it restarts just as quickly there. I can probably get my PC to restart unexpectedly in a lot of ways, but maybe this information is enough for someone experienced to figure out or suspect where the problem may lie?)

I have installed all the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website.
I have installed all windows updates.
I have run Memtest86+ for 10 hours with 6 passes and 0 errors.

From the restarts I also get the error: "Event ID: 6008" (keywords: 0x80000000000000)

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
