Possible cause of random restarts??? (screenshot added)
MSI K7T Turbo2
AMD 1800+
20Gb HD
2 x 128mb ram
Windows XP Pro
8mb? or 16mb? Cirrus AGP video
This computer will randomly shut itself off. I ran F@H on it for 100% CPU load and it did not do it then, CPU temp was at 55C at max load, it was runing like that for about 2 hours. Noticed the shutdows when playing stupid internet games, when the video was working harder. RAM was suggested to me as the possible culprit, and PSU. I would like to stress test it using Knoppix to rule out windows but im not sure if there is a test of any kind in it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and let me know if you need more info. Thanks.
