Dalcyte Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 For some reason, a few minutes ago, my computer automatically reset itself, turning off then turning on again. I'm running a quick spyware/virus scan, but i doubt thats the cause. If anyone has any ideas, just tell me...Thanks.

coltm4carbine Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Do this: right click my computer -> properties -> advanced -> startup and recovery -> uncheck the automatically reboot option. Then the next time something goes wrong it'll disaplay a BSoD. copy everything on the blue screen and post back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anesthesia Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Then the next time something goes wrong it'll disaplay a BSoD. Surely it wouldn't if it was an overheating or PSU-related problem? In my experience they are the most common cause of restarts. Some people are changed by being a moderator. I wouldn't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalcyte Posted December 24, 2006 Author Share Posted December 24, 2006 come to think of it, an overheating problem would seem the most logical...

bluehawk92 Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Yes its over heating, happened to me alot, i bought new fans. About recent web-adresses, its probably becuz when your computer retsarted it deleted your cookies maybe. Its just a guess but you have nothing to worry about Pyromancer, next time you touch my signature, dont take everything about buddy.This is Zoidnerd, im banned on rs for 2 moar dais so smd kai? Btw a cooked bread once told me he did things to little boys. I didnt name any names so deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just a guess but you have nothing to worry about Autocomplete has nothing to do with cookies. It would more likely be because the autocomplete history gets saved upon the closing of the program. Also, you cannot be sure that it is overheating with the information he gave. Some people are changed by being a moderator. I wouldn't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaziek Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 it could be the GPU overheating as well i suppose that happened to me an awful lot recently what videocard do u have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexrider1234 Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 It could also be caused by corrupt system files (update gone wrong etc), press start, click run then type "cmd" then a window that should be black will appear, type "sfc /scannow" just not in quotes, and wait for it to scan your system files.

Yeh so I was thinking if it doesn't display the BSoD then it would narrow it down. :oops: That's what I usually do anyway...(personal preference perhaps?)

Anesthesia Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 That's true. It would still be worth doing. Some people are changed by being a moderator. I wouldn't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
