PC rebooting when moving files

I have a PC where I just upgraded the CPU and I am not sure I have all the settings right for it. I am now getting random reboots when moving FLAC files from one internal hard drive to another.

The motherboard is a Gigabyte 7VT600P-RZ(-C). The CPU is Athlon XP 2600+. Memory is 2 x 512MB PC3200 DDR 400 MHz sticks. Motherboard System Jumper is set for Auto which supports FSB 266/333/400 MHz CPU. Speedfan shows the CPU never gets above 48 C even under heavy load. OS is Windows XP Pro (SP2) with all current patches. It has three hard drives. Two of them are connected as primary drives on an add-on IDE card in a PCI slot. The main hard drive is connected via the primary IDE controller the motherboard. The PC reboots when moving FLAC from HD2 (250 GB) to HD3 (300GB). The primary HD mainly serves to hold the OS and system files. I am not moving files to and from the primary HD.

I am currently running Memtest86 on the memory and no errors have occured yet. Any ideas?


Thanks! Grem

 

I turned off the automatic reboot feature on XP about two days ago.

Memtest is stilling running after 12 hours and has found one error. How do I tell which memory module it is?

I replaced the memory modules with 1 stick of 1GB PC3200 DDR 400 MHz RAM. I get a different error now. I got a BSOD with a message that read

tcpip.sys page_fault_in_nonpaged_area.

Any ideas? This has been a royal pain.

Bak - I will check out that post. I am not sure what I did, but it appears stable now.

I just noticed I listed the wrong motherboard. I have a Gigabyte GA-7VA

I had a random reboot problem with an ECS P4M800 mobo with a D915 dual core Presler. I chased all sorts of ghosts and fixed things that really didn't need fixing. The culprit was the Power Supply. A 430 Watt would not turn it on. 500 Watts produced the reboot problem. It is stable a a rock with a 600 Watt (+12Volts @ 24 Amps).

 

I directed you to Adrenalyne's post, to see about debugging, but, I would run memtest on this stick of Ram .
