It just crashes as if some one has pressed the power off button. I think it is surely some thing to do with power supply. I will open the case and leave for a day. I will also remove one of the CDROM and see what happens. Thanks, Mike Jackson wrote: samy lancher (washville2003@yahoo.com) wrote: > > The system just crashes.

I removed two cd drives from it and it has not happened since. I can't say if this is your problem or not, but it's worth considering. -- Mike Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
