LOLOLOLOL, he might be on safe mode.

I had this problem. Everytime I went on the internet, the computer restarted. So I scanned our pc in safe mode and found a sasser worm. Everything was well after that.

(Excet for our stupid airline braking the pins of my cpu, they denied it)

Sorry for being late ...

Anyway i tried everything , scanned my pc many times using AVAST checked the tempreture .... 36c idle 40 while playing ..

PS: im not using my pc LOL ...

Yes my pc is DESKTOP

I suggest you uninstall avast and install antivir.

You can download a sasser worm scanner from http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?d...

I really do hope you fix it, it gave me a hard time when I had no idea what it was or even what to do. You can start your pc on save mode by pressing F"number", it is not always the same. It might be F12, F10, F8 or F2, or look at your screen when you start your computer.

Keep pressing one of them and you should be seeing options after starting your pc, chose safe mode with networking...press yes. Then download antivir and a saaser worm scanner. And use this too : http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/ b4 uninstalling or installing anything.

download it and scan ur pc.

Have fun.

If it's not a worm, then it's got to have something to do with that crappy Nvidia chipset. For two years I've had NOTHING but major problems using Nforce 4 based boards. Most of them had to do with the Ethernet card and/or firewall setup, and some the IDE setup. The most common were the Ethernet problems, and sometimes it involved random reboots when using the Internet (heavily). I switched to an Intel chipset while waiting for my Core 2 chip, and I'm happy to report very few problems while using a temporary 805, unless I overclock it to much.

I would suggest disabling the Automatic system restart and checking if there is a BSOD. If there is - look for an error code/description or a file name.

Although this is probably irrelevant ... I have experienced the same problem with modems (dial up) conflicting with HT (Could be the same with Dual Core). Whenever I was online after 4-5 mins I would get a BSOD and IRQ_LESS_OR_EQUEL (or something like that).

Check for the BSOD.

Also if you could tell us what kind of connection you have - and how you connect (Modem / router e.t.c) it could really help.

Upset

When the my computer does this I always test my memory with mem test. It is easy and free and in 90 percent of my cases was my problem. Good luck. Bad memory modules can wreak havoc.
