For some reason Ive been getting random restarts and freezes and I wanna know where to start troubleshooting. All the stuff in there is new except for the hard drive. Ive had it about 3-4 years now. That and the cd rom drives. The vid card, psu, cpu, ram, board, those are all fairly new. Bought them in January. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I know I have two drives in there, both 74gb raptors, and I had to have one RMA'd and when it came in I installed windows on it and left the one I am on now alone because I had a new drive. Well the pc started freezing and restarting randomly(about once or twice a night) and it finally had an error and Id have to reinstall, so I plugged the old one back in and im on it now, and im still gettin random restarts and its bugging the crap out of me. Ive also ran memtest86 over night with no errors at all. Ive set windows to not restart upon an error and it does anyway. The screen goes black and turns off and right back on, none of the fans wind down or hard drives or anything.
