i was not sure which section this came under so i just
posted it here. For some reason my computer reboots
itself when im on it, i dont know why this is happening
and there is nothing that i know of that prompts this in
happening. It mainly happens when im playing games on my
computer, im not sure whether its an error or something;
but its really annoying so if anyone knows whats wrong or
how to stop this PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!
 
Greetings --

Since the problem occurs mostly in games, I'd suspect bad video
drivers.

To get started troubleshooting the cause of your problems, we'll
need to learn what specific errors are occurring and being recorded.

To get the error message from the blue screen (a.k.a. the BSOD --
Blue Screen of Death), you'll need to turn off WinXP's automatic
reboot "feature:" Right-click My Computer > Properties > Advanced >
Startup and Recovery > Uncheck "Automatically restart." The next time
your PC crashes, you'll be left with a blue screen full of memory
addresses and other seeming gibberish. The top 2 or 3 lines of this
screen will contain information that can help solve your problem.
Carefully write down these lines and post the exact text back here.
Hopefully, one of us will be able to provide some insight.

Additionally, you should check your Event Logs to see if they can
shed any light on the matter, To do so, Right-click My Computer >
Manage > Event Viewer > System and Application. Record the specifics
of any red-flagged error messages and post the exact text back here.
Again, hopefully, one of us will be able to provide some insight.
