I put 98 on it then upgraded to xp and i had this prob, so i fdisk and just booted from xp cd and installed. When I toke out the netgear card it did not reboot for like 4 days but it does it every so often now and yes I toke out the roxio software.

My error log was getting filled up with shellhardware detection and network problem so i thought it was my nic and i put in a 3 com and no more network errors from the error log but like i said it still reboots now and then.

If its my ram, how can I tell? I mean im running now and its fine... (btw its non ecc) if it was bad wont i be getting a bad ram check in post?

and i dont have another psu to swap out to test...
