Help!

Help 4chan! My computer keeps constantly rebooting itself! It happens in various of times and I do not know the cause of it. Wether i'm listening to music, watching videos, or playing games, it happens. What may be the cause??

Top of the list would be a dying PSU. Capacitor rot on the motherboard thereafter. Check for overheating too.

Disable the automatic restart on system failure option in Windows XP.  If it's a bad psu failure, it'll reboot even though that option is disabled.

Ok I found out that it was because of Lineage II. Whenever I tab out or quit the game, my comptuer reboots. So...if I accidently hit the start menu button, it crashes and reboots. If I quit it the legit way, it crashes and reboot. I had chances to end task it, but it reboots. Any clue?

Follow >>3 and tell us what the BSOD says

Ok, I did it. I get the Blue screen of death saying IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL .

IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL is usually a bad driver or hardware fault usually in the graphics area. If it's only happening when you exit a particular game, it sounds like that game is interacting with your graphics driver in a way that causes a crash. Try patching Lineage II to make sure you've got the latest bugfixes first (it probably won't fix it, but it's the least potentially risky thing to try). Then try upgrading your graphics card drivers, or switching to a generic driver for your chipset instead of a card manufacturer-specific one.

Yes, I got it fixed. I made sure my windows were up to date, and redownloaded a different version of my video card driver. I was using one of those unofficial omega drivers, and now I switched back to the officials ones. So far it works fine. Thank you guys.

When my PSU on my old 533Mhz Compaq 7470 was frying (trying to run 2HDs, 2CD-ROMs, PCI video card and 3 other PCI video cards off of a 175W PSU), I got a LOT of IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL errors.  Prolly has something to do with the APIC or some shit.

Increase PSU wattage.

Omg, This is horrible. I have another problem once again. These never happen to me before, why now?!?! I get the BSOD and the error saying BAD_*Something*_ERROR . ARGH! I forgot what it said in the middle! Shit, I'll repost once the thing occurs again. It happened when I was watching Honey and clover 7 -_-.
