cd/dvd burner is :ASUS DRW-1814BL
processor Intel(r) pentium(r)dual CPU E2180@2.00GHz

Hi there
first of tell me why do say or what makes you say its your cd/dvd writer??
also post your PSU wattage
Guessing related to dvd/cd drive or media software as it only re-starts when cd/dvd being used.
invoice says 480 watts
any ideas what else it might be if its not the media software or dvd/cd drive??? just assumed it woudl be since it happens only when you play 3 cd's in a row type thing...
thanks
zoe
It can be a number of things thats causing it t behave the way it does but its reasonable its cd/dvd drw.
get a higher wattege PSU (for testing) and see how it behaves.are you running xp?and how much ram do you have my friend
yes xp and Ram is 0.99GB
weird how it runs 2 perfectly then crashes on the 3rd one every time.....
will take a few days to get a higher wattage PSU...
anything else i can test in the mean time?
