My computer keeps rebooting on it's own day and night?

Nov 4, 2004 8:42PM PST

I am running Windows XP Pro. and I'm hooked up to the internet through cable. And out of know where my computer will reboot on it's own so I installed a "Anti-Crash" program and this is still happening?. And I also turned back the clock on my computer as it were and still this is happening?. And my family or I will be working on the computer and again out of know where the computer will reboot?. Now I get a Microsoft message that says that I had a "Device Error" and one time I got a "Hardware Error" and I have uninstalled "EVERY!!" on my computer one at a time and still this happens. In fact it happened again yesterday and I got another "Device Error" message. And when I set up my computer to leave the blue screen and I have all of these long numbers and when I contacted my computer maker they didn't even know what to make of it and this is a custome built system. So can you "PLEASE!!!!!!!!!" help me with my situation??????

Hopefully you still have the record of stop errors and/or event ids that are causing you trouble. If you would post them here or email them to me at zanthor@sbcglobal.net , I would happily sort through them and research a solution to your problem.
