    Question Weird laptop reaction......

    Ok laptop at work. Loads perfectly, runs with no problems, then if you move it, it totally crashes and takes out the hard disk. Have reseated everything, changed the hard disk, and friggin glued the memory cards into place....(well it's out of warranty anyway)...and still get this problem??????

    My other computer, kept restarting, randomly and sometimes would not go on at all . What really helped it was getting a can of compressed air and blowing it in the case and PS. Getting all the dust bunnies out

    Auto restart also sometime happens when the voltage is set to 220V instead of 120V (in whatever countries it applies). So try to see if that's something changed.
    Baaaaaaaaah
