Hi all,

I'm experience a strange problem with one of my PC's I'm hoping someone can give me a hand with (I've had this for almost a year now, but the problem didn't start until about a week or two ago).

Once in a while, about every two days or so, the computer will freeze (no mouse/keyboard input or screen updates whatsoever) for about 1-3 seconds, then the pc will restart.

The behavior is what I would expect with an overheated CPU or the like, but I'm not sure that's the case (the heatsink and vent ports are all very clean).

At some point in the past, I had found some means of monitoring the CPU temp and other related diagnosis information, but I don't remember where.

Any suggestions on what to look at?

Thanks,

Have you updated the video drivers lately? You may want to check for newer versions. Flash is extremely video intensive and can throw memory faults easily. You may also want to update Flash itself.
