Hello. My problem is the following: The Vista i have just installed on a fresh Hard-drive (1Tb Samsung) Keeps resetting at it's own will.

My Configuration is the following: MB: Asus P5Q3 Deluxe with P45 chipset, an Intel E8400 processor, 2x1Gb DDR3 Corsair RAM, Video Board: BFG 7600 GT OC, Power Supply: Thermaltake 480W.

The Windows in freshly installed with only the drivers and some windows updates. It restarts 1 minute after i enter windows every time. If i just stay in BIOS, it's alright but when i enter Vista, it resets one minute later. Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

driver conflict probably, try and go onto ur PC via safe mode (hit f8 before the microsoft slidy bar comes up) then load device manager and see if there is anything wrong with ur hardware, do u notice if it flashes a Blue screen of DEATH?

------------------------------ Which Chip? Well, it depends on which set of thieving b@stardz you choose to support: The ones who use insider trading to enrich themselves while running their company into the ground, or the ones who illegally pay vendors to not support the first group.
