Last night i shut off my computer then i restarted it again 10 mins later, after that the problem occured. Everytime i press my power button, the computer restarts again, and again.

It gets to the loading screen then it will restart. Safe mode, running from last good config and running normally does nothing. They all make it restart. This is the first time i have ever had this problem.

I dont know if this is the problem but i just recently installed a 1gb RAM module.

please help me

RAM might be bad, or there might be an issue with your current RAM setup.

Run memtest86 and check for memory errors, we'll go from there.
