System error restarts computer

[Guest]

I have a PC running Win XP Pro.
Since a week, the system restarts randomly and records error category 102.
A full system scan returned a clean system report.
Any clue why so is so.
Thanks
Yba

Check Event Viewer for error details.

Hi,

Disable the autorestart on system failure, then you will get a stop error
(or blue screen) that may hold more clues to the actual error. Go to the
Control Panel/System/Advanced tab, click on startup and recovery settings.
Uncheck the option for restart on system failure. When it happens again,
record the exact error message and post back.
