Hi Guys, my pc keeps rebooting. pc is newly built, all new parts except the psu (550w corsair-about 4 years old). Started about a month ago, it would randomly reboot every 10-15 mins and got progressively worse over 1-2 days until it rebooted every 1-2mins & i couldnt even access the bios. i re installed windows 10 which fixed this issue for about a month.
this weekend it stared rebooting again. i tested the graphics card by switching it out with an old one, no luck. i switched the ram to different slots(dont have any spare to test) i had a spare hd in there (which wasnt being recognized- i didnt even realize as i didnt use it) as soon as i removed it, the reboot loop stopped.My pc case is the thermaltake level10 gt, it has a bunch of built in HD slots & it was attached to one of those. it stopped the reboot loop for 2 days and now its back to rebooting every 5 mins.
Is it likely the psu or motherboard?
Here are my pc specs:
