Apokalips was correct. I flashed my bios freaking out the entire 30 seconds it took to do it and that has cleared up my restart issues. I have also ordered windows 7 and waiting for ever so slow Microsoft to finish processing my order. I hate having 4 gigs of ram and only being able to use 3...

Hello.
I just upgraded my computer's cpu from an Intel 2200 to an Intel Q9300. Before installing the new cpu I had no previous problems with random restarts. With the new CPU it will restart at random when putting loads onto it. My system reboots when trying to play an online game or a video...
