You might want to double check. It is not normal that the system restarted after all.
Whaty do u mean? Double check?

EDIT: I didnt had a restart since I unticked that... but its too early to say 'oriblem solved':huh:

and btw... if there will be another failure, then I have to do a restart manually? I mean wahts the point? It wont be solved.

The point is that we need more data to analyse the cause of the problem. That is why I was trying to get the Bugcheck data. But if you had no other restart, then I guess we are not yet at that point. So let's wait until the event occurs again and hopefully we'll get the data. Here is an explanation (from Wikipedia) what this is all about.

When a bug check is issued a crash dump file will be created if the system is configured to create them. This file contains a snapshot of useful low-level information about the system that can be used to debug the root cause of the problem.
If the user has enabled it, the system will write an entry to the system event log. The log entry contains information about the bug check (including the bug check code and its parameters) as well as a link which will report the bug to Microsoft and provide the user with prescriptive suggestions if the cause of the check is definitive and well-known.
Next, if a kernel debugger is connected and active when the bug check occurs, the system will break into the debugger where the cause of the crash can be investigated. If no debugger is attached, then a blue text screen is displayed that contains information about why the error occurred, which is called a blue screen or bug check screen.
The user will only see the blue screen if the system is not configured to Automatically Restart. Otherwise, it appears as though the system simply rebooted (though a blue screen might be visible for just an instant).

Oh! Now I get it.

WHen I get the blue screen, do I have to copy the info on a piece of paper? or it will be instantly saved into my system?

What you will need to do is navigate to c:/windows/minidump and zip up the .dmp file and attach it to your next post so we can analyse it for you... ;)

Tews is right, but it does not hurt to write it down also - just in case there is a problem with the dump.

PS: We'll help you, don't worry.

I understand you dilemma. But as long as we are unable to look at any bugcheck codes, we are looking into a black box. Review again the settings you have made to prevent an automatic restart - maybe you overlooked something.

Could it be a setting in the BIOS not letting the blue screen splash?
