I've got a problem ... It's ma bloody computer playin up again, and I think its down to the hardware. The computer seems to keep resetting itself or freezing for no particular reason, with no errors appearing once it switcehs back on. I've had this problem for a while now. I've taken the steps to wipe everything on the hard drive and start again, installing windows xp pro again and all the drivers. Also on the few occasions that the computer has ran for more than 7 minutes, the sound does not work, i think this is also down to hardware and I'm blaming the motherboard which has the sound card built into it. Any help will be much appreciated Cheers

Yeah all 3 fans are running, and the computer is only a couple of month old so I didn't think dust would be a problem yet, I did give it a good clean out a couple of days ago though and to no success!

The freezing or resetting could be a heat problem. Fan(s) runnning? Then how long since you opened the box and gave it a good cleaning? Maybe reseat all the cards. If these measures produce no change, then could be the MB.
