Well, I got a pretty bad situation on my hands and I don't really know what to do.
Heres what happens...
My parents have a computer that I built for them, that has been working fine until a few days ago. When your using the computer it will just suddenly restart. Now, this isnt an overclocked machine and your prolly thinking its the power supply.. The thing is that the power supply voltages are all where they should be. What I did notice is that when it restars and I go into the bios, the hardrive isnt detected. For some reason the hardrive seems to power off by itself while in windows. The hardrive is a Western Digital 30 GB 7200 RPM HD. I'll list the rest of the specs as well..
Athlon Xp 2000+
Asus A7V-333
1024 PC2100 Micron
Antec 350 Watt
Has anyone heard of this happening? Any comments or solutions?
Any help is appreciated! Thankyou
