Then if you can find the mobo book, look at the published memory requirements and go into the bios, and look at the bios settings for something out of the ordinary. If you can, swap the memory with another know good system for a few days....

It cannot hurt to swap the power supply to see if that fixes the random reboots.... hth, James -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
