My computer has been crashing for some time now, and i've just figured out what the problem may be; it wasn't loading up at all the other day so i disconnected all the wires then put them back in still the same problem-computer resetting, i then just put the basic wires back in my computer (the screen, keyboard, mouse and power) and it loaded up fine, i then thought i'd check the internet out so i put the usb cable back in for my internet and it crashed again i took the cable back out and it loaded up fine, i tried putting the cable back in when my computer was up and running and it crashed straight away. i tried several usb ports they was all making my computer reset, i've putting in a different usb for something else on my computer and that was fine, so its definately the usb for the internet and not my usb ports!
So i thought i'd try ethernet and still having the same problem, it loads up much better with the ethernet but every hour or so my computer will reset, can anybody identify the probnlem here - do i have a faulty ntl box ?? thanks in advance!!!
