I did a fresh install of XP Pro yesterday, however twice last night and twice today the monitor went black and the computer restarted on its own for no reason... and yes I've installed the nForce2, video and monitor drivers... any idea why this is happening?
 
Right click my computer/properties/advanced/startup & recovery/settings. Untick auto restart. Now you will get an error message ( hopefully) that you can post here.
 
Ok well update: Taurus had told me to do the same thing you said and I got the error message and I guess the nForce2 and Geforce drivers had some kind of conflict because when I reformatted I installed them both at the same time before restarting =) So I just bit my lip and reformatted again... 20 minute reformat btw... w00t!
 
UGH Nevermind it freakin happened again... here's a screenshot of the error screen it helps...
 
^Thanks, I'll try swapping out a stick of ram next time it freezes and see if it happens again...

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
