<<<<I have recently been having my computer reboot itself several times during the day.  It starts with without any information on the screen when I start to
computer up.  After many retries it will go through the normal booting sequence. Shortly with in one minute the computer will reboot itself.  I will reboot itself approxmately five times back to back.  I do not get any error messages,so I am lost to why this is occuring>>>>

Hi

in a very similar situation (without error msgs.) i found out that a bad PSU was the cause.on replacing the PSU everything was fine.

having said this....

(1)self reboots could be caused by many,many factors and i think very time consuming to diagnose.

(2)not that i did any extensive diagnostics in my case but just acted on a hunch. had a spare PSU and it turned out to be the fix.

FWIW and good luck and very happy NEW YEAR---Venkat
