Hi,
Has anyone ran into this problem before? I have a HP Brio BA410 with windows 2000 pro installed, 128mb of ram 933mhz. For some reason this pc was ramdomly rebooting. At first I thought it was bad memory so I ran Memtest86 for 17hrs straight without rebooting. It showed errors in the memory so I went ahead and replaced it with a new 128mb sdram. Upon installing the memory I flipped on the pc and now it reboots every 7mins. I even tried installing the memory in a different slot and using another stick of memory. The Pc keeps restarting either when it restarting windows where it does a disk integrety check or when it gets to the windows logon on screen it reboots. I finally got it to login to arrive at the desktop and everything looked okay. But then about 7mins aftewards it rebooted again. I checked the logs and nothing out of the odinary is there. All devices are okay in device manager. Am I missing something? any input would be great!!!
James
