When running XP and the internet, i have had 2 crashes that re-set my Novatech PC -- It switched off the PC \Restarts and then comes up Windows XP encountered a serious error or something like this message. This has happened twice in the last 3 weeks. (1 crash per week on average) - no set time or date though

Have checked the PC health in the Bios and the temp is 37 - 31 for both settings. So dont think its that

Am using a Dual Core 3.4 1Gig Ram and a PCI-e NVidia Card 254mb ram.

The only thing i noticed was that there was a slight increase in HD activity before the crash.

Has anyone else suffered this windows problem as i think its down to XP rather than my machine ??

i would try updating your drivers etc before taking any drastic action. remove any software that has been installed but not required and see if this helps. Also make sure your xp is is up to date with all the fixes avialable from windowsupdate.
