AMD XP2500+ 512 MB DDR 333 Mem, 120GB HDD K7N2G Motherboard intermittently reboots, reinstalled different OS's, still the same.

Any ideas?

 

Could it be power-related? Checked the power pack?

 

I have this problem with my PC at work, although it's a much older machine.

The problems been put down to a faulty switch - but don't tell the boss cos I'm next in line for a new computer becuase of it - I told him it was the motherboard...

 

I had a similar problem at home that turned out to be a memory error. I used <a HREF="http://hcidesign.com/memtest/">Memtest86</a> to sort it.

 

I'm suspicious of the memory, i'll give it a try. Ta.

 

sounds like memory to me.

I'd check the memory too. I'd run memtest86 on it as Zanlin suggested.

 

Turned out to be not enough thermal grease on the CPU

 

Check the bios see if it's set to shutdown if the CPU get's to hot.
Also what PSU do you have?

 

Thanx, but it's fine now.
