Default Unsolicited reboots Update

Changed out power supply still had reboots

Changed out M/B using same memory and a PCI E video card since it
wouldnt accept AGP I had and all is fine now



Original message

Well its my turn in the unsolicited reboot pool. Built the machine
myself at least 2.5 years ago. Worked from very first boot after
build till just yesterday.. no software has been added to the system.
It randomly reboots with no set time interval.

I have stopped auto reboot on error
and still reboots .

Nothing shows up in event log

Video temp 46C

Cpu temp 46C

All fans operational including Video

Ran memtest had no errors

Guess I'm looking at a powersupply. Currently running an EG-465P-VE
430


FX-57

Default Re: Unsolicited reboots Update

Another update

After changing out M/B using same memory and New PCI-E video card
system was fine for 3 days then the unsolicited reboots came again.
So I swapped the 2 meg of memory between two machines and that didnt
change things. Removed a Promise IDE contoller that had been in
original system for 2.5 years and now in new system and reboot issue
seems solved. Could have saved a bunch of head scratchin had I
removed this item from the start but I needed to move on to a PCI-E
video card any way after all this time holding out.
