Media Center PC rebooting while interacting with extender
Hello,
I have a Media Center PC which has Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, i7-860 processor, Ceton Infinitv pcie, EVGA GT430 graphics, Corsair SSD for OS and WD Green 2tb for recordings etc. I am also using a Ceton Echo extender in my home.
The pc somewhat consistently reboots itself when I begin to interact with the extender. For instance, when I bring up the guide and start to scroll through the channel list, or go to Recorded TV to find a show to watch. I am not sure if this has anything to do specifically with Media Center and it's communication with the extender, or if it just happens to be that this activity presents a load on the pc which causes the reboot. In the past, I have also had issues with the pc rebooting at times, especially when under a load. For instance if Media Center is open and also trying to convert a video file using various conversion applications simultaneously.
I have run MemTest 86 for 8+ hours with no errors and replaced the PSU. The problem is still happening.
The PC runs quite reliably if just using media center to watch live or recorded tv. Anyone have ideas about what I should check next? Maybe video card getting too hot??
Thanks
