Computer Restarts Itself - Comments Page 4

I don't know whats wrong with my system,it keeps restarting any time i try to download any file from the internet. Have tried system restore, it didn't have any effect.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Did you see the suggestions under the "Computer Restarts After Download?" heading?

My computer will restart when i open 3D things for example when i play games and when i open google earth. No minidump file created. I disable auto restart already. CPU no overheat. Why it still restart???? Recently i bought a new ram(512mb) and i pair it with another same type of ram(512mb).

EDITOR'S NOTE: Try removing the old RAM and run with just the new RAM.

I have been having the same problem with the computer restarting several times when I first turn it on, and then randomly (and increasingly) while it is running - usually while I'm using it. I tried un-checking the "automatically restart," and now I can't get it booted past the first screen that pops up on startup (and I don't see any particular error message to reveal the problem). my question: what now? how do I get it to boot up again?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Have you tried doing a System Restore to a point when things were better? Have you ruled out bad RAM?

Whenever i make a dial-up connection to the internet with my computer a virus restarts my whole machine about five seconds after the connection is made. i then tried to use mcafee to remove it, and when mcafee detected it, it restarted again. this is one well written and smart virus..... help please

EDITOR'S NOTE: Dump McAfee and get a better antivirus package. See http://www.askbobrankin.com/should_i_buy_antispyware_or_antivirus_software.html

Hi, I have too, been getting these problems where my computer restarts itself. I replace the power supply, hard drive, motherboard, processor, and the graphic card. So I have know idea whats wrong... and how to fix it. Plese help!

EDITOR'S NOTE: I would have started with the RAM, did you try swapping that out?

I have some computer restart problems using Windows XP. Everytime i go to run > cmd computer restarts. If i search on google.com for "restart automatically problems" it displays the link but if i click on one of them it restarts again. I can still access emails and visit other websites also search for other contents through google.com.

i have unchecked the option of "automatically restart" still the problem continues. what should i do next?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Did you try the system file checker (SFC) command?

when i want to download a program from internet or a website my computer restars please help me why ?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Did you see the note topic on this earlier on the page?

Computer restarts, before entering Windows, and keeps restarting over and over. Machine started doing it so, I replaced one thing after another, PS, Mem, HD, Vid, with no luck. Tried eliminating CD-Rom completely, to no avail. Any help here would be great.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Sounds like the only thing left is the motherboard...

My computer restarts, but I have to say that my Windows XP Version is not legal. Maybe Microsoft has "planted" some kind of "malfunction" for this kind of versions through Windows Update? I reinstalled all and it worked fine until I downloaded the first patches, there all started again.

My problem is when i run games my computer restarts or should i say not restart, all the fans etc are still running but my audio/ monitor goes off and lights on keyboard dont respond , this doesnt happen at all on unreal-99 but but does happen on counterstrike or silkroad , sometimes i can play the games for a while or even hours without this problem or restart, its like its totally random if i get to play the game or not please help...

EDITOR'S NOTE: Sounds like bad RAM or overheating. Both can cause seemingly random problems.
