Alrighty, this is the 3rd time I've tried to write this, as my IE and computer either error or restarts. I need help on trying to figure out why my computer does a random restart. It will stay up for more than 5 minutes and then randomly after that it will restart. I am running NOD32 antivirus. Just installed the following new hardware
1. DVD Burner (Digital Research, Magic Rite Brand) --- 4X
2. 200GB HD Maxtor 8mb Cache
I also just installed windows XP on the 200 GB HD, needless to say the windows XP install only recognized about 130GB of the total HD size, so I downloaded SP1 did all the updates, restarted, and installed partition magic 8. It found the rest of the remaining space around 70GB and I made a partition for 70GB. Then I installed some DVD Burner Software that came with the burner and I installed the rest of the updates from MS, and all that. Only other items installed on this computer are: NOD32, AIM, and thats it! Can someone point me in the right direction on getting help for why it restarts? Should I just re-install the OS? the install only found 130GB of the HD Size when I installed the first time, what steps should I take if I re-install it to prevent this from happening again? Anyone had this happen?
Needing Help,
