Machine rebooting.
A friend has a Win 2k machine that starts up, runs scandisk, finds no
errors, but then just as windows 2k is loading resets and starts all over again. I've told him that I reckon its a psu or overheating problem. Any other ideas ? |

Do a thorough test of your memory (including the cache RAM) if you can or disable the cache to see if it is your problem. Ken |
