Hi All
I have a Windows XP SP2 box which I assembled. It has been working fine for
teh past three years and I have never had major issue. Recently however it
has started to simply reboot itself for no apparent reason. I did change the
power supply in Jan 2007. What happens is that I am working on something and
- boom - the machine restarts. When it comes back alive, I DO NOT See event
ID 6008 indicating a drty reboot. This really puzzles me. I then did a filter
for event log events and noticed that I only see events 6009 and 6005 in the
sequence. I rarely see 6006.
Now, if a machine simply restarts, should I not see a 6008? Why doesnt my
system log it?
I have been told that this may be a hardware problem... either power supply,
or RAM, or mother board. I am willing to check out the hardware but I still
dont see why a 6008 should not be logged on a dirty reboot.
Any ideas on how I should proceed on this one?
Thanks
Nagendra
