This could be a heat problem. Make sure all of your fans are working. I you have moved the machine make sure there is nothing lose on the inside. Does the bios update support 110 GB HD's.

my case is acutally really cool. I have 4 fans and 1 fan on the hard drive.  So, the heat isnt a issue. Like for instance, Its been running for 2 days now, but it will still randomly just restart...

Have you overclocked anything? or have over aggressive timing on your RAM in your bios. What OS are your using? What is your Event Viewer saying?

What OS are you running?

so far this still could be a software based problem.

in windows XP, right click on my computer > properties > advanced > startup and recovery settings > uncheck the auto reboot, and set it for a complete memory dump.

This will give you more information on the issue that you are really having, then we may be able to help out more with it.

I checked my event viewer. It says :



\"The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck.  The bugcheck was: 0x0000001e (0xc0000005, 0xba6156d8, 0x00000001, 0x00004e33). Microsoft Windows 2000 [v15.2195]. A dump was saved in: C:\WINNT\Minidump\Mini050903-03.dmp.


What is this and what can I do from this happening again???

I checked MS knowledge base and got 25 articles for 0x0000001e. Does it tell you at the top of the screen a error message like KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED ntoskrnl.exe for example. When does this error happen?

Well, It hasnt happened for a while. I guess Im just going to assume that its the anti-virus causing this. IT seems to be the consensus on other forums. I have a patch that is supposed to update the part of the program that causes it. I will see. THanks everyone!!!
