My computer keeps restarting randomly. Ill be doing different things. The pc isnt overheading. Also some of my programs crash/quit all of a sudden once in awhile
I really need to fix this it is driving me nucking futs.
Any idea or help would be much appreicated.

To have XP display the error message instead of rebooting:
1. Click Start, and then right-click My Computer.
2. Click Properties.
3. Click the Advanced tab, and then click Settings under Startup and Recovery.
4. Under System failure, click to clear the Automatically restart check box.
5. Click OK, and then click OK.

I dont think its a Virus iv updated and Ran Norton to check for a virus.'

Seems you may have faulty ram/vram or maybe it's your antivirus
Test the ram using MEMTEST86Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.
Teach him to fish and you feed him for life.

Thanks i ran memtest and it showed one of part of my ram bad so i took it out. no my pc is running slower then a slug even thought it still have 1gb of ram in it. and now my video card wont install right. i keep installing it but it doesnt show up or work right. i dont have on board video.

If you are prepared for a complete reinstal the I recommend doing so and this time during the instal have the bare minimum of devices attached. CPU, 1 stick ram cdrom,harddrive and graphics. Once you get it installed and stable then try adding extra things like more ram.
It is entirely possible that with faulty ram having been in place for some time your system has become corrupt.Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.
