i get no warning just straight out restart as if i lost power.
i can play fable,hellgate london,cs1.6,ut2k4,bf2,black&white2 with no problems..
but with flash games,burning cd's/dvd's,hl2 games.. system shuts down.

go to system properties and disable auto restart on system failure, then see if you can get your comp to do what its doing and see if you get a blue screen, then tell us what the blue screen says
 
where can i turn this auto reboot off?

im not getting any bsod though.
 
Control Panel, System, Advanced, Startup and Recovery, Settings and uncheck the box under System failure that says Automatically Restart...

You may be getting bsod's, but the machine is restarting so, therefore you can't see it...
 
ok unchecked it now ill try playing a flash game or something.. (ran out of dvd-r's)
 
What type of burning/imaging software are you using? And what is the Event ID# of the error?
 
nero essentials 7

heres a pic of the event log. time of restart was about 4:53:54


 
Alright, here is what I have been able to come up with... I think it has to do with the Removable Storage Manager... it's likely starting automatically, which you don't need. Try setting the startup type to Manual, and under Service Status, click Stop... that's all I got, hope it helps...
 
lol where and how do i do this? im a complete noob on troubleshooting os problems.
 
Right click on My Computer>Manage>Services and Applications>Services and scroll down to Removable Storage, and make sure that the startup is set to manual, and then stop the service, if it's started... hopefully that will help...
