System Restart

Hey I just built a new system, and the system restarts like every 15 mins on me automaticly. Any help?

well i had a problem like that also...there could be 2 problems

1. The memory is not compatible

2. The CPU temp is getting to hot


my problem was the memory...hope this helps



Oh yeah....also check the hardware some times a bad driver or a device that isn't sitting properly in the slots...

does it only do this while idle or in the middle of something? or both?

I resolved this problem.

and the problem was?

or you just turned off auto restart?

my comp does dat 2 sometimes

i turn it on and like 5 min later it restarts

Right click on my computer, go to the advanced tab, go to startup and recovery. click settings and then uncheck the auto restart button.

actually that DOESNT fix ur problem..... it simply doesnt restart your pc..... if you get the problem again (and you dont restart) you get a blue screen..... its simple

No it fixes it. No blue screen.

You've disabled the auto restart on critical error feature. Now what was the critical error? Improper bios setting? Bad ram? excessive CPU heat?

I guess since you figure it's fixed, you'll find out in a few days or weeks when your computer no longer responds.

Please let us know then, what it was that killed your system.
