Pls help,

3 systems on my network are restarting everytime. This started 2 days ago, I'd replaced their power pack with new one but still they restart uncontrollably. At times, they won't boot to windows gefore restarting again.I'd even relocates them to where sytem works normally but still, no result.They are all on UPS backup.I'd even changed entire CASE for one of them but still, it restarts.
Pls , any suggestion on what I can do to stop this, the board are not up to 18 months yet.

Larry

How many total computers are on your network? Have you tried to use them with out the network hooked up? It sounds like a virus or a bad switch, router, hub... Its definately hardware or a virus. What antivirus software do you have? Are all of the computers hooked up to the same UPS?

My best friend had the same problem, it turned out he had the windows virus thats been recently going around.

Windows.com does offers patches to windows users

he unfortunatly had to format his computer first but, he hasn't had any problems since..

i hope that helps...
