| 17715 | 2001-08-27 13:19:00 | Have recently put together a DFI M/B AM75-TC VIA 266FSB ATX & 1Gg AMD Thunderbird with 20G HDD, Floppy, CD-Writer, Int Modem & network card in std ATX case. Win 98SE O/S. Installed sundry software. Day 1 A-OK. Day 2 Moved to another bldng. Computer keeps starting & restarting. Have I got a power issue in this bldng? Moved back to first bldng & computer behaving itself. Have installed Win 98SE fix just in case it's this. Too scared to move back to 2nd bldng. Where should I be looking? | Guest (0) | ||
