My copmuter keeps randomly restarting, freezing and is also hard to start up. Im not really sure what the problem is but my computer is 3 years old, windows xp home edition, 2.93ghz and 512 MB of ram. I recently downloaded the speedfan software and it gave me the following readings (I would of taken a screenshot but had some trouble :\ ) : system: 40C CPU: 78C AUX: 121C HD0: 33C CPU0 fan: 3041 rpm speed01: 100% speed04: 86% speed02: 100% speed03: 100% Vcore: 1.36V +12V: 11.56V AVcc: 3.36V At the time of the reading I had MSN and internet explorer running. If anyone detects something wrong here could you please tell me what and how I could correct it, thanks. Sorry I couldn't get a screenshot.
