Hi Rick,

I see this problem most of the time with heat.  You're adding extra stuff to
your system, and the extra heat could be just enough to push the CPU over
the edge.  I could also be WAY off base, but it's something to look at.
Usually when I've had heat problems I would get frequent lockups and
reboots.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Machine shuts down and restarts its self


> I have a intell d850gb mother board and have downloaded the mosit recent
bios update, 1.5 GHZ intell chip. My machine was running fine with no
problems, I installed a adaptec 2100s raid card with 2, 37 gig scsi hd's
Running in a raid 0 configuration. The raid card and drives work perfectly,
however at a totally earatic interval the machine will shut down and restat
its self as if it was unpluged and repluged back in.------------- I checked
for irq conflicts or anything like that and cant seem to find anything, I
even moved the card to a differnt PCI slot and it still does it. Any
sugestions?
