Is there ANY way of disabling that blasted auto-shutdown BSOD? (Blue Screen of Death) I have the auto-restart disabled, but I would like to see if I can stop my system from shuttind down by itself.

Restarts like this are often caused my faulty drivers or incompatible hardware. Or other hardware problems like overheating or a power supply that's not strong enough. Software can also cause it though.

Make sure that windows has all of the patches installed and that all of your drivers are up to date. Even running the System compatiblity checker of off the Xp cd might be a good idea.

Post the error message/s that your getting and maybe someone can help out.

Hope this helps,
Sandman
