Hello again, it has been some time since I last posted a question here



To my problem;


About a mothn ago I hade some terrible problems with freezing and reboots, all random at any time.

I've fixed some changes in BIOS and the system now properly works for about 8-10houres, but after that, the system reboots. And after the reboot it wont take long until another reboot comes, but if I let the computer stay turned off during the night, I am able to use the PC for another 8-10 houres. To me it sounds like a overheating problem, no doubt that.

But the case got excellent colling, Asus PC probe II(I know it ain't showing core temps, but still the CPU temp) is telling me a temp below 30Degrees while just writing, and during a running process of Prime95, the Temp isn't reaching 60Degrees( celsius ). The MB now is 35degrees.

Many thanks to everyone who's taking time in helping me with my problem :)

Use memtest to test your RAM. Seems like a faulty DIMM to me.

Does that have anything to do with the 8-10houres interval that I meantioned?

I'll run the Memtest after a reformatting on the system, just in case, thanks for the info!
