    Computer restarts, when i plug in any usb mass storage device. (memory stick, digital camera and mp3)
    Once restarted the device can be accessed.

    The motherboard is a Asrock p4i65g
    with 1 gig of ram.
    Power supply is a Q-TEC PSU 400w
    Have a usb keyboard and mouse working off two
    of the six usb ports on the mother board.
    Have dissconnected the front usb.
    Also tried installing a usb card, plugged into the motherboard and
    the same thing happen.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    thanks steven:confused

    i am not sure how relevant this is to my past experience... but giving shot..
    i once had a Lenovo laptop with exactly the same...annoying issue

    beleive it or not the solution was to upgrade the bios to the latest version, and drivers... fixed the problem

    worth a shot ;)
