i made sure all my drivers were up to date

checked my psu and the only thing running off is the +12 its at 11.26-11.46 im unsure if this is the problem

made sure windows auto restart was off etc... and still having issues.

left the computer on to go see a movie came back and had a black screen no response from mouse or keyboard. had to push power button

and ontop of this all my temps are fine

so im at a loss as to what it is the only idea is the psu but i would have no idea how to comfirm this

any help would be apreciated

Hello Fizics,

I have a link talking about the random reboot problem: http://www.ryzom.com/forum/archive/index.php?t-2792.html

Some guys in that thread solved the problem by setting the FSB to lower.
