Hey im having some issues with my computer, some programmes just crash and if im running more then a couple of programmes at once the CPU shoots through the roof and if it gets to 100% it usually BSOD's and restarts my computer. I havn't got a clue if its the RAM

 

here is my setup

 

Windows Vista homepremium 32bit

2.0 GB RAM

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ 3.00GHz

NVDIA Geforce 8600 GT

500gb Hdd

 

sorry i cant tell you what the BSOD says because it only flicks on for about 5 - 10 seconds before my computer automatically restarts....

 

Help me please?

 

if you need any more info dont hesitate to ask :)

 

thanks

Don't know on Vista but on XP, to remove auto-restart:

 

Right click computer - properties - advanced - start and reset - settings - untick the box "restart automatically".

Sorry if the words aren't exactly corresponding, but i'm on a non-English OS.

 

When you start next time you could bring up the task manager - processes - cpu, to see what's hogging. Also, you could download Core Temp to see what your CPU temp is.
