Computer keeps rebooting When i have a few programs running at once my computer resets itself.PSU problem???
Nope no error message just resets itself and then reloads windows got an AMD sempron 2600 and just a 350 watt PSU
How so? I'm running a XP3000 with an HDD, DVD-RW, a 256mb Radeon 9600, loads of attached crap and thats all from a 300W shuttle PSU. Never have any resets In theory a sempron should require less power as it's a cut down version of the athlon. try working out how much power you need using this and tell me what you get. EDIT: Just had the case open to fit a new HDD and it's a 250W, not a 300W :fart:
Mine does it when I overclock my RAM too. Just out of curiosity Lee, are you doing anything differently to normal? Have you replaced/added any bits to your PC recently?
That comes back with 279 watts mate.I havent added or removed anything from my computer I am running FM2005 Abc bit torrent client A mozilla firefox window at the sametime but other than that doing nothing that should cause this
Ok then... Download Everest Home from here and install it. Fire it up, expand the 'Computer' tab, and click on Sensors. What you're looking for is the voltages at the bottom. You should see something like this list: CPU Core: 3.3V: +5V: +12V: +5V Standby: DIMM: AGP: Copy each one and post it on here, from that I should be able to work out if you're overloading your PSU or if its something else.
