PC Random restart - Please guide to diagnose
Hi All
I got this random Restart on my PC
I am hoping someone here can guide me slowly to diagnose the problem and finding the solution
where should I start
I have CPUZ report ... will that help?
any other tools I should get
I suspect it is the memory not set / optimize properly on the bios. I bought this dual memory kit sometime ago from NCIX

OCZ Platinum XTC REV.2 PC2-6400 2GB 2X1GB DDR2-800 CL4-4-4-15 240PIN DIMM Dual Channel Memory Kit
it was a good deal I didn't research wether it is good for my mobo ga-ma78gm-s2h
Please let me know where to start in diagnosing this Random Restart ....
Symptoms:
no BSOD. goes black right away. then it start back up. after desktop comes back I always have to right click my wireless network and click troubleshoot problem in order to get internet back.
since it happens once or twice a day.. now ,every time it goes black I just let it shut down by pressing F8 then press and hold the power button. This way I don't need to click - troubleshoot problem - in order to get internet back.
OS: Windows 7 Pro 32 Bit
