my box has started to reboot within the last week or so. last night i took the whole thing apart and rebuilt it.from the proc up. even took out a cdrw thinkning it was a power issue. then i found that i had a bunk ide cable. that was replaced, and didnt reboot for 2 days. now its back at it :rolleyes: usually it does it when i am burning a dvdr or just put the dvd in the drive when im ready for a burn. here is my sys specks.

XP2800 Barton on a msi 6380E
1.5GB rosewill 333
6xHDD w/Raid0
1Xdvdrw
450W thermaltake pwr supply
creative 24bit live
netgear nic

i might just have to get another board iv had this one for almost 5yrs now. :(
or another power supply even tho this one is brand new

:mad:
 
first thing you'll want to do is get into safe mode. if you can run safe mode alright, you'll know it's not a hardware problem and save yourself a few bucks. if safe mode is working properly, it's def a software issue. if the reboot just started to happen, my guess would be that you just installed some software that's conflicting with the existing software.
