hi,

about a week ago i reformatted and upgraded to windows 7 64 bit all has been good so far.

have updated all drivers, installed windows updates etc.

last night eve was perfectly fine spent maybe 6 hours online then went to play something else, however today i log in went to do a mission as alliance was quiet go into mission and around 5 minutes later my PC restarts, thought nothing of it and logged in again but without firefox / winamp /steam /TS same thing fine for around 10 minutes then another random restart.

tried a 3rd time same thing,

after the 3rd time i decided to test if it was overheating nope, i opened ship simulator extremes left it running for an hour no restart, then did the same with FSX (i believe these are the two most resource hungry games i own) still no crash, fire up eve again auto warp takes me back into mission (gone berserk level 4) and around 5 minutes later PC restarts.

anyone got any ideas?
