Hey guys, I just built my first computer and I can't keep it going long enough to even install WinXp Professional. It restarts quite randomly without any sign of anything being wrong. It can restart as soon as when the bios boot, even before I boot into the CD or it sometimes waits until I start formatting the Hard Drive.
Specs: Gigabyte EX-38 Mobo, Ati Radeon 3870x2, Corsair 4gig Ram 2-dimm 800mhz, CoolerMaster 1000w PSU, 750gig seagate Sata HD, and some random dvdrw.
I've been looking around on other posts about this and I've been seeing that it could have something to do with the ram. I have not tried this yet (I'm at work at the moment). Also I heard that I need to have something with the SATA enabled in the bios.
Any more feedback would be greatly appreciated
