Random Restarts

[Alex]

My computer randomly restarts itself every time that I am
in the middle of using it. When I turn the computer back
on the Send Error Report Message comes up. I get the same
thing everytime that its a device thing. At first I
thought it was my vid. card, but I put another one in and
it kept messing up. I have no idea what it could be. In
the error report it said something about a minidump. I
dont know what to do.

have you installed software recently? typically this is the issue, and you
have a driver conflict or some such thing. i typically have received this
message when i download and install too many trial software packages. the
only answer is to re-install a new image of XP.

Alex,
Can you send me the contents of your "minidump" directory in your Windows
directory?
I need to look at the files to determine what is causing the crash.
Thanks,
