Darrol Larrok 1140797 Posted May 16, 2010 at 06:47 PM Posted May 16, 2010 at 06:47 PM Every once in a while my computer will randomly reboot when I'm using FSX. This is occasionally paired with an unusual problem preceding the restart, such as my joystick's PTT key failing, while the keyboard PTT key works fine. I've disabled automatic restarts in the event of BSODS/kernel panics/failures, so it doesn't appear to be a software issue. Any ideas?

Darrol Larrok 1140797 Posted May 16, 2010 at 07:23 PM Author Posted May 16, 2010 at 07:23 PM I did check that. Heat is not a factor at all, maxing out at 40 C(processor max is 70 C) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Wright Posted May 17, 2010 at 01:26 AM Posted May 17, 2010 at 01:26 AM Could check:- Display drivers & Memory - how is this arranged ? 3 x 2Gb sticks or 2 x 3Gb sticks ? Could remove one of them one at at time, and see if the problem persists ? Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
