Ive downloaded several different graphics driver, both old and new, have installed 
service pack 1 on my XP professional. Re-installed windows XP 3-4 times last year. 
Flashed Bios, Upgraded AGP ports etc..

I just read on another problem that the issue might be related to OpenGL using apps. 
since half-life, battlefield 1942 etc. triggers the reboots. Apparently XP has some 
issues with my motherboard and OpenGL in some way, just discovered different sollutions 
that im currently trying out, setting PCI latency to 0 is one of them etc...

I will post the sollution here when/if i find it...
