Why is my computer restarting itself?!
Last week or so, I was online when all of a sudden my computer restarted itself. I thought I had hit a key by accident, so I thought nothing of it. Well, it has since happened 3 more times, one of them being about 5 minutes ago and I dont know why. I got rid of all my computer crap last week [virus, spyware, ads...], so I dont know whats wrong? It also seems to erase my history of the day and the day before.

I should also mention that this could just be a software problem - a Windows or application error; follow these steps to disable the "automatically restart on errors" setting:
1. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties. 2. Click the Advanced tab. 3. Under Startup and Recovery, click Settings to open the Startup and Recovery dialog box. 4. Clear the Automatically restart check box, and click OK the necessary number of times. 5. Restart your computer for the settings to take effect. this will force windows to give you an error message when this happens, write down the error information and I can research it for you. |

Ahhh yes...the memory dump screen. I got that all the time I had my last computer. There's a way to turn it off so you don't get that screen. I believe it's Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Advanced tab -- under the Settings and Recovery section at the bottom, click on the Settings button and under Write debugging information, choose (none) from the drop-down menu.

It restarted again. It hasnt even been three HOURS, before it was doing it every three DAYS. Anyways, the message was a bit different this time. I screencapped it. Now this is really starting to piss me off.
