Hi,

I just clean installed Win 2000 Pro (256M Ram,40G c drive,
80G d drive). Everything works fine but sometime the
computer will shut down and restart by itself
unexpectedly. I notice that it usually does this when I
click on the "Close" button on the upper right coner of
the window that I'm using. Can someone please help me out
to fix this?

A million thanks.

Edwin
 
Ed:

The problem is most likely hardware related. I have had
several HP ePC's that have had to have their motherboards
replaced due to spontanious reboots. They were all
running Win 2000 Pro, but the problem was not with the
operating system. Probably not good news if your machine
is not under warranty.

Configure it to NOT auto restart on fatal error. (This is usually activated
by default) Then you will get a stop code (Along with the blue screen of
death) You can then research the stop code. I had a problem with one that I
traced to a video driver.
Hope this helps
Bill
