So, about a year back I upgraded most of the hardware in my computer ( New board, AMD 6 core chip, 4 gigs of RAM, SD harddrive ) I did this because I was maxing out my proccessor.
I am currently running Windows XP 32bit with the 3GMs of ram enabl.
I do a heavy amount of music production so I love my RAM
Once I get to the end of a songs production ( heavyier ram and about 20% of CPU usuage ) my computer will often just reboot itsself - it will do this sometimes within 10 minutes of the project being open, some times it will do it with the computer just idling. There are no blue screens, some times it will freeze and hang, then restart, some times its just a clean reboot; however, I do get a "your computer has recovered from a serious problem"
I suspect the following:
Using too much RAM ( since I am at the top end of what a 32bit system can use
Powersupply ( only thing I didn't replace ) voltage spikes etc etc
Videocard ( another element I didn't replace )
Latency buss issues ( I changed the buss priority primarly to my soundcard - taking away from the video card, in order to cut down on latency )
Am I crazy ?
I am also planning on moving over to XP 64 to rid my self of the ram issue, but I want to make sure I have everything else in order so I don't just transfer a problem over.
Attached is the pick of the eeor codes I get.
