    Now and again my pc will cut out and reboot, my 1st thought was that it had something to do with me overclocking the ram but i reset it all too normal and it still does it, this is the error message i get when it starts up

    BCCode : d1 BCP1 : 00000000 BCP2 : 00000002 BCP3 : 00000000
    BCP4 : F6AE0C73 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 1_0 Product : 256_1

    really do not want to format so any suggestion will be appreciated

    ps am running a 400w psu.

    Thanks for the link, i unchecked the Automatically Restart in the startup and recovery settings so i hope that should work but i still dont understand what the problem could be.

    it appears to be a driver problem so if it screws up again according to the link "Now when it happens, you will get a blue screen, with a D1 you should get the name of the driver windows xp thinks is causing the error displayed near the botton of the screen, its a filename ending in .SYS."

    disable your lan as when checking the net it was mentioned that it might be lan or sound card problem
