Hello,
I have a Soyo K7VME board runnign XP Pro SP2 that reboots randomly. It
did not used to do this, this happened either on installation of a
fancy audio card (aardvark Q10) or new monitor drivers.
I can duplicate the reboot everytime by scrolling a folder with
pictures thumbnail enabled.
I have to no avail
1. swapped the RAM
2. installed a new video card
3. reinstalled XP
Also I have booted off the hard drive in another computer and this
works without crashing.
I can play audio files, open tons of windows, defrag the drive,
unzip/zip big files and it does not crash.
It cannot be a mobo shorting issue because its easily triggered by the
scrolling. Its not a CPU heating issue as temperatures are failry
stable, high (62 C) but stable.
