    What are your voltages, in particular VCore. You may need something like MBM or Speedfan to check properly.

    Your PSU may be ok, but if the voltages generated by the board itself are too low for the processor or memory random reboots would be a typical problem.

    If they are low it may be possible to increase them via the bios.

    Also, i noticed you've got new memory too. Some high performance memory needs a higher voltage than standard, check what your's requires.
    .
    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    We've built 4 Gigabyte 939 systems in the past few weeks and have had no stability issues whatsoever.
    In fact, right now I would recommend the GA series over any other brand.
    Since these are still very early days for the nForce4 chipset I value stability over (potential) performance (as reputed for the MSI/DFI variants).

    After reading your initial post, the first thing that I would have done is replace the drive/check jumper settings/make sure the BIOS is set correctly/try an alternate IDE header.
    You don't say (so I am assuming not) that this problem occurs under any other conditions, so the optical drive itself (or settings pertaining to it) seems like the obvious starting point.

    Don't be so quick to diss the mobo, GG.

    I remember I helped you find drivers for it a while ago btw, unless I've got the wrong person.

    Was it the same before and after you'd installed them (if it was you)?

    Or did you just get the sound drivers?


    Oh and listen to lynx, may we have a look at your voltage levels?

    Yea actually u told me where to get the sound drivers for my mobo and it fixed the problem. As someone said before, could I be missing some drivers?
    @clocker- I'm not sure what the vcore is.

    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.

    Well, as far as I know, the vcore looks ok haven't got one of those myself to check it with tho'.

    Is the vcore2 value the vdimm?



    And what is the temp3 value?


    EDit: Maybe you should try and get the chipset drivers from the site as well.
