Hi,
I have a curious problem with my pc that has been ongoing for a few months now. When the pc is first turned on it remains stable for about 30-60 mins and then the display will blank and recover a few times before it just reboots of it’s own accord.
Once the reboot has taken place the pc will remain stable until the next time it is powered off. As a result, I have got into the habit of powering it up /logging on and then immediately restarting via Shutdown – Restart. This prevents the crash scenario described above.
I have tried the following in my attempts to fix the problem:
1) Replaced memory
2) Replaced video card and drivers
3) Updated BIOS
4) Updated VIA 4 in 1 drivers
5) Turned off all power management
If anyone has any ideas I would be very grateful to hear them.
My pc spec is:
Legend QDI kudoz 7 (chipset Via KT266)
AMD Athlon XP 1600+
NVIDIA GeForce 2TI video card
568MB RAM
2 x HDD (40GB system disk, 60GB data disk)
Windows XP Pro SP2
I hope that is enough info?
