Take it to another home and try it.  I had the same problem and after much,
much frustration,  found it was a loose neutral at main power box.  This is
an easy way to rule out your power.

Subject: [PCBUILD] PC stop and reboots


Hello everyone

I am really at my wits end. I have a PC that kepts on rebooting all by
itself. weather in standby or working on it surfing the web. There is no
warning, it just reboots.  I have change the CPU, Fan, Hard Drive, and
Ram - no help I have also remove everything from case to base setup
(mobo,ram. video, HD and Floopy) - NO HELP. Then I removed the MOBO out
and check for something that may be shorting it out, found nothing.  I
then replaced it back in the case with insulated washers on the screws.
Still no Help. It looks like the MOBO is bad.  Any ideas?

Asus P5A-A Socket 7
Generic Cirrus 2 meg Video
64 meg Ram
850meg WD Hard drive
16 bit Sound card
56k modem
40x cdrom


Thanks Jerry
