"problem with compuer shutting down" Thu Nov-30-06 10:37 PM by 1l
Hi, Recently, I have the problem of the computer kept retarting. I can't pinpoint what the problem is. It just seems like everytime a program acts odd, my pc just restarts. There's been some instance of my ie not responding and it restarts. There has been instances where my program to play my mp3s wasn't responding and it restarts. I don't even know where to begin to trouble shoot the problem. Anybody can offer any help on troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated. Also, my IE recently has been acting weird, it kept giving me that generic message that IE is not working and needs to restart. I can still use IE, just don't know when it won't work. Thanks.

Where can I find the system log? I will read about the memtest. Thanks.

Did the memory tests and it detected some memory errors. I took out the module that has the error and it hasn't displayed it's old symtom yet. We'll see =) Thanks for memtest suggestions.
