Hello everybody!
I have built a computer few weeks ago.
It's:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ EE
Geil Value 2×1GB KIT 800MHz RAM
Gigabyte GA-M61VME-S2
Gigabyte Radeon X1600 PRO graphic card
Creative X-FI Extreme Music sound card
Seagate 160GB SATAII hdd
Samsung DVD/RW
LC Power LC-2019MB case with 350W PSU
I have installed Windows Vista 32 bit and been quite happy with my new computer till I found out it's restarting every few days.
It's restarting without any worning window. Sometimes it's during I'm listening to music (Winamp) and surfing on internet but sometimes I only listen to music and doing nothing with my mouse or keyboard.
Sometimes it just shuts down like I would unplug power cord and sometimes It just 'hangs up'. I can't move mouse pointer then and music from Winamp is like from broken CD. I have to shut it by unpluging. But once I got blue screen and message sth like: Computer shut down to prevent damage to your hardware.
I installed Everest to check temperatures and voltages and that it seems OK. Even when I put computer in heavy duty work. CPU temp is about 49°C then ( 39°C in idle).
Also strange is that when comp is heavy duty working (rendering in AutoCAD) for a few hours alltogether, everything is OK.
That's why I don't blame PSU or even other hardware. I have also put memory to MemTest86 through night and it didn't say any errors.
I have installed all latest drivers for motherboard, graphic and sound card.
I somehow think restarting is not hardware problem, but maybe some program or driver is not compatible with vista. I don't know.
Did you have any similar problems or have any clue, why would my comp keep restarting?
