I came to this page because I was looking to help out a friend. but some of the
sugestions here have enraged me. Sugestions that a Radeon GFX card is to blame for
example. I myself have been running a Radeon 9000 128MB since it came out and have
had zero problems. my friend however who is running on-board GFX is having restart
issues! a simple case of getting your facts right before sugesting people to buy
your brand of choice apears to be called for! anyway, back to the initial subgect,
It would apear to me that the main cause of this symptom is that there is a problem
with the m/board dealing with I/O commands. However this can be caused by several
factors: mem' failure; insufiscient power; over-heating C.P.U.; screwed win' system
files; or the I/O control part of the m/board has become falty. Drivers may also
be a factor...in that they are the software interface for your devices I/O operations.
If you are having restart problems before getting into windows then Drivers seem
to be least likely of the problems. What I say is to replace each possible factor(One
at a time) from a retail outlet near you, untill you find the component that is at
fault(return each part in turn after the testing process) once you have found the
offending part return it and re-purchase from a cheaper source.
