I have a P4 3.2ghz
ASUS P4C800 Deluxe
1GB Ram
Leadtek nVidia GEforce FX-5950 256mb
SB Audigy 2
LG 16x dvd
Pioneer 106 ide 4x dvd writer
2 Seagate 160gb 7200 setup with raid 0
windows xp home with all updates
Antec case with 400w power supply

My problem is the system keeps shutting itself off for no reason. Sometimes it is just after I turn it on and sometimes it could be on for hours before it happens. When I turn it back on it boots normally.
I have checked for virus's and worms.
Any help would be appreiciated.
Thank you
Barrie

go into the bios and check the temp...it could be over heating

Temps seem fine.

Download and run a memory tester

Same thing happened to me a while back. It turned out to be the power supply failing. If you have a spare PSU, or one that you can gank from a friend, try swapping them. It also could be a mobo problem, but try the swapping the PSU first.

Hope it's that simple! :cool:

I tried memory tester and it found that one of the modules had errors. I hope removing it will solve the problem

Thanks for the help
