Windows 7 Random Restarts
Hey, I been having this issue with my computer over the last 4/5 days.
My computer is set up exactly the same way it has been for the last 16months and there has never been an issue with it. I have recently cleaned out my whole PC and replaced the thermal compound on the CPU chip and now I am seeming to have issues with my computer randomly restarting and crashing with no BSOD. In my event viewer I am getting alot of critical messages with 'Kernel-Power' (The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.)
Ive looking into all of my hardware being a techie and I can not see any issue with it, all components seem to be running fine. I can't see it being a heat issue either as my CPUs peak point is 77c - CoreTemp and my graphics card peak is 69c - Rivatuner. I dont see it being a heat build up in the case either as I have an thermal reader inside the case that only picks up 25c.
I have checked to see if all my drivers are up to date and they are and I have looked for software issues but I can not find anything.
I have seen in a few other forums about changing the voltages for RAM, FSB etc and it has fixed the issue. But I dont think this will be the case for me as it has run OC for the last 16 months with no need to touch those settings.
Would anyone be able to help me put an end to this issue.
Thanks
