My PC has been randomly restarting, with no error messages, it just restarts, nothign in the event logs, I cannot understand it, all the parts in this PC are brand new, I've checked for malware, and there are no problems with that, what could be the cause of this? What should I check first? Software, hardware?
If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

I don't think its the temp, my PC is running at 44C idle (I know, not the best temps, but still, its Prescott based.), I haven't checked the memory yet.
