Hi Everyone.
First i want to list my system specs.
I have an AMD Phenom ii X4 920 (Stock)
1 Gig of DDR2 RAM PC2-4200 (planning on upgrading)
an XFX ATI Radeon 4650 (Stock)
An ATX 300 Watt psu (This might be an issue)
and an MSI K9N6PGM2-V Motherboard (Low-end, i'm on an extremely tight budget).
Windows Vista Home Premium.
I started noticing this issue couple months ago with the same specs above but with an AMD Phenom X4 9750 instead.
What would happen is the computer would load up to the bios screen. It would pass that, then it would then pass with the OS selection fine but when the system shows the bootup loading screen, (It shows the progress bar with the green bars moving across), The system from there would automatically
Reboot to the Very beginning. I used to have 2 Gigs of RAM but the system wouldn't boot with this specific stick i had in so i took it out. so i'm assuming the RAM is fine. I've replaced the CPU with a Phenom ii so the Processor isn't the problem. The Video card is fine because the same problem would happen with it on and off the system. So now im stuck here with a broken computer and i don't know what to do. Could it be the PSU?
I'm out of ideas and now i'm turning to you guys for help.
