[QUOTE="kahlil88, post: 1483148, member: 47208"] My second guess was overheating, but in my experience this usually causes the machine to shut off rather than reboot...at least if it's the CPU that's boiling. Not very much dust, but the thermal compound is very dry and hard. Gonna clean the chips and heatsink with isopropyl alcohol and apply a fresh coat of Arctic Silver. [/QUOTE]
