Reboot problem

[mdflores]

Hi,

My pc reboots almost regularly during high cpu usage (during dvd ripping (video encoding?), index rating). I laready tested my RAM using memtest and windows memory diagnostics and both results are OK. I also bought a new PSU but still have the same problem. Could it be the Processor or the motherboard? OR windows 7 Beta?

Btw, my hardwares are as follows:

Athlon X2 6000+
Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H
4GB (2x2GB) Kingston DDR2 800
PC HD 3650 512MB DDR3
HEC Win+ Power 550
OS: WIndows 7 Beta

Hi

Check that you cpu fan is working properly.Reseat your heatsink by puting thermal paste between your processor and cpu.Make sure there's proper airflow through your pc.You can also go into the Bios and check the cpu temperature just to ensure that it is an overheating problem.
