Hmm, some1 had a similar problem before, and had an interesting screenshot to show how they fixed it.

It's also similar to a pair of worms some of my people caught a few weeks ago.

I'd suggest googling the name of every running process on your computer -- even the ones that look undoubtedly like system things. On top of being fascinating, it's a (nearly) certain way to dig up worms of this sort.

BTW, if foo returns a billion hits, search foo.exe (even if it's not called that explicitly).

Good luck [img]smile.gif[/img]

LOL, if only i HAD been there, then there would be a logical explanation.

I've noticed a patern, the rebooting only happens when i have a disc in my DVD drive. I usually patch all my games with no-CD fixes, but some games don't have one, so i need to play with the disc in the drive.

So what could be the connection between the rebootings and my DVD drive ?

Could be a bad Driver. Does it happen with all disks ?

One thing I do when having problems witha driver is delete the hardware by going to.

Right Click on My computer > Properties > Hardware > Device manager.

Right click on the DVD Drive and delete ( or uninstall)

Restart your computer and see if it still does it
