King Poulet 1 Posted March 2, 2002 It occuring more often. I think it never happened before. Â Once, it crashed back to Windows XP. Now it not only do that but the computer just reboot itself!! Â Cant point out the problem. Â Anyone know what it is? Â I read a little and it a bit related to VIA chipset on AMD. Â But since it started to reboot i'm a bit worried. my eq: Radeo8500 retail Epox 8kha+ Athlon 1800+ 256 Meg ram Audigy Xgamer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geonat 0 Posted March 2, 2002 did you download the VIA drivers for XP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Poulet 1 Posted March 2, 2002 Yes, but I uninstall it because it wasn't solving the problems, and XP have integrated drivers for VIA chipset anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 29 Posted March 2, 2002 Not sure but it could be this......... Go to control panel/system/ click the "advanced" tab, then under "Startup and Recovery" click "settings" and uncheck the box "automatically restart". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
