on the PC like running starcraft (a game) or just doing things using windows explorer. my computer will unexpectedly restart... usually telling me that it's a device_IRQ error or a page fault, or pnf list corrupt. also, used to have a prob with the VIA ide
chipset but i installed it. i never was able to fix my multimedia codes or video codecs under the device manager. it says that it can't find the updates for it... should i just disable them? my comp seems to work fine w/out them except for the restarting.
if anyone can tell me how to make it so my comp doesn't restart anymore, contact me, thanks
