Please, post your entire configuration + your personal information. So we can help you better.

This is not normal, there is a problem somewhere... Did you follow all paranoid precautions?

Try reset BIOS settings to defaults (optimized defaults or fail safe defaults). Or clear CMOS by removing battery or by the jumper.

Happy New Year!

Like name, address, SS#...? That seems odds.

At least now I think that's your post tag, which is cute, depsite being a little late. ;)


OP, Please list all your hardware specs, save the personal info. And is eveyrthing at stock/default setting? Nothing OC'd? And when does the random restart happen: idle or load, browsing, bios?

Check event viewer for major errors. If its event 45 then replace RAM.

+1. I had the same problem when I ran my 9500GT with bad quality 250W power supply in January 2009.

The power supply died a few days later. :)

Your water cooled cards are that hot? :eek:. Gotta find out why, and check to see if your cpu is hot too.
