Computer Continuously Reboots
![]() |
Try using Asus Probe II. That way you can monitor the temperatures and voltages, and one of those are causing reboots, you would see which one.
All except VGA. Temp for VGA can be monitored in advanced settings in display properties. I have NVIDIA VGA and GeForce tab in that settings. On that tab I can see current VGA temp.
I bet it is VGA overheating.
Anyway, if the heatsink isn't properly seated, it won't pick up heat from the chip below, thus it will be cold to the touch, while the chip is overheating.
It has to be TIGHT, and thermal paste layer should be VERY thin.

I say what I see. If you find my words offensive, then you find my reality offensive.

but if it's my vga that is overheating what can i do to cool it down?
I've just changed my cpu fan so i think the heatsink is tightly seated.
But my computer only loads into windows after it kinda heats up which will take several restarts.
Any clue on this???? Thanx
IF it's not CPU overheating, which btw would result in extreme slowdowns instead of reboots, it can be either chipset or VGA.
I suggest that you use Asus Probe II to monitor the temps.
You should check out the event log to see if anything is recorded there that would indicate possible reason for the reboots. Click on the "run" and type "eventvwr.msc /s" (without quotations).
If you find anything suspicious, feel free to post the entry here.

Have you tried removing your motherboard from the case and removing exccess parts one after another until you utilise the problem?
Posts should be like mini-skirts, long enough to cover enough, but not too long that you cover too much.
