Re: Windows XP Crashing Question

First off, how about some system specs?

Have you recently changed any components? Installed any new software? Altered the layout of your funiture (and thus the Feng shui of the room)?

Do you have a antivirus and antispyware program(s) running? Bad spyware can cause reboots and system instabilty, espically on certain time intervals when they try to do something 3vil.

Random restarts are just a part of computing these days (and if anyone from the Mac crowd trys to tell me they don't have them I'm laughing. Seriously). When it happens over and over again at set intervals, I start to suspect either a piece of software doing something on a timer or a component overheating.
