hi all.
i have a problem, when starting up, it some times takes 3/4 restarts before it will fire up.
i have reinstalled xp home , but some times it just restarts on its own.
fortunately i have backed the whole drive up on dvd,just in case.
i have checked all the connections, and they seem ok.
once started properly it seems to be ok.
processor and motherboard now 6 yaers old.
drive 4 years old.
any help appreciated.

cheers roders
