System Re-Starts 10 Mins after Auto Shutdown

M

Mike Donovan

Running XP Home edition on Pent 4 class computer. My
Ethernet connection for cable for the internet went bad
and I had to install a seperate 10/100 PCI card to get
online again. The old connection was built into the MB. (
disabled and removed ) Now the computer will re-boot
itself in about 10 minutes after Auto Shutoff closes
things down normally to a dark screen. All quiet and
normal...then in 10 mins, the system re-starts itself. Any
hints ??

Check the machines BIOS for anything that mentions 'wake on LAN' and dissable
it.
