First, I want to say hello to all TH community. I've been reading forums long time and found VERY much usefull info, solutions and advices ...

And now with the problem ... 4 months ago i started experiencing weird PC reboots. Later discovered, that reboots happen ONLY when programs like eMule, BitComet and alike was runing. Two weeks ago I've upgraded PC, leaving ONLY case from the old computer (PSU was changed too), installed fresh XP Pro, and tried to run BitComet. No error message, no nothing, just BAM ant reboot. So, I assume that problem is not hardware related. I've updated everything that can be updated - XP updates, drivers, BIOS ... Same ... :(

Here are my PC's spec's:

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 939 Venice
MB ASUS A8N-E
2x512MB PQI RAM
7600GT 256MB
2x80GB SATA Seagate's in RAID 0
ATRIX 450W PSU
Lite-ON DVD-ROM
D-Link DWL-520+ WLAN card

Everything running at stock speeds

Well, if anyone had similar experience, post your advices ...

Thanks in advance
