    Well, the just of it is in the details... like lack of ehm ...

    BTW, monitor EVERYTHING, get MotherBord Monitor4, log your voltages, tempuratures, everything.. Shake the case, see if it causes reboot. Spontanious rebooting is tough to sort out.

    If you have spare parts, start swaping, start with your PowerSupply.

    Chances are something is shorting your power good line from the p/s.

    Chances are it is releated to heat and/or bad Power Supply.

    When was the last time you opened the case and cleaned out the dust?

    Check the memory as well.

    You can use GoldMemory to perform the diagnostics.
