Serious: Forced Reboots

Foremost, I'm not entirely sure if this belongs here, but my problem has happened while playing NM numerous times.
Problem: Often while I'm on my computer I'll see my screen go blank and my computer automatically re-starts itself, out of nowhere. It did it right before I was preparing to start this thread initially and it did it again right after it restarted right after Windows Loaded. Also, it does it just about anytime; it's random. Sometimes when I'm turning my comp. on in the morning while it's starting up for the first time that day. When I'm online, offline. Whenever.
Whenever it reboots I get a message saying:
'This system has recovered from a serious error.'
Error Signature: BCCode : 50 BCPl : BCP4: 0000001 BCP3 : BF903FSA BCP4: 0000000 OSUer : 5 _ 1 _ 2600 SP: 0 _ 0 Product 2561 Internet Protocol (IP).
Reporting Details: This error report includes: information regarding the condition of Microsoft Windows when the proplem occurred, the operating system version and computer hardware in use, and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer.
Please, I'm clueless! Help appreciated.

Overheating will usually cause just a serious hang, rarely will it reboot. Do you have a virus checker running? some viruses will force reboots like that.

I have been having this problem while playing Counter-Stike. I would get try to join a server or be in between changing maps and my computer will just.. re-start! heh.. I have tried running a virus scanner and running spy-ware scanner. Nothing has fixed it. (Been going on for a couple months)

First, to the virus checking. I have Norton AntiVirus 2003, in which I use to scan my computer almost everyday. I've never found an infection, ever. But, I must wonder, for the mere fact that my Norton started acting up recently. Every 2-3 min. I get a Norton window that pops up saying that it's unable to start the Instant Messenging for infections from downloads. Also, a few days ago it was unable to complete a scan for some odd reason. Along with some other smaller problems within the program.
Back onto the main focus.
I haven't always had this problem since I last formated my computer and reinstalled Windows. Even though I keep on having consistent problems since I ordered and recieved this new computer. So I'm going to say, around a few weeks ago.
I'm not sure on this next part. I'll show you my system.
Windows XP Professional 2002 Version. Service Pack 1.
Computer: AMD Athlon (tm) XP 2200+
1.80 GHz - 256 MB of Ram.
My case temp. is fine, how do I check system temperature?

I may be a bit out of date when I say this, but back when I used Norton it was loaded with problems. I haven't used it in probably 5 or 6 years, but I remember back then having similar issues to those you are describing. It seemed that every time I updated my virus definitions, it would get just a tad slower until eventually the computer could hardly do anything. I don't know if Norton still is known for these types of things, though. Hopefully someone else out there has used Norton and confirm or deny this before you go and wipe it all out.

JLH, do you have any other suggestions? Also, sometimes the various things I'm on will just close. For example, I'll be on Internet Explorer, and I'll get a Windows Error and it forces it to close. Along with AIM and NM.

pandilex's has been doing that recently when he does particular things with remote desktop, and certain usb device drivers. since pandilex know's what he's doing with computers, i'd put it down to a fault with xp.

i get that a lot as well, and im running XP Pro.. lmfao must be something to do with XP /shrug my computer is an AMD Athlon XP2000+ running at 1.66GHz, 256MB DDR333 RAM.. and its brand new, so i know there cant be something wrong with the mobo or anything... the CPU temp stays at a normal rate or around 30-35C, which i monitor constantly with software i got with the mobo.. anywayz just thought id say this happens to me too.. maybe we should mass mail ol billy and demand an explanation as to why XP is rather XPerimental

There was several machines that did this at work which happened to run XP. Try running a windows update and see if that cures the problem.

/t Lavalamp and Seito - Seems like I'm having the same exact situation as you over here.
I've done hours upon hours of Windows Updates, got em' all, and apparently it didn't help much.
Also, JLH, how do I check my CPU temp.?

you can put a thermometer (the glass one with mercury) and put it by the processor, and leave it there for like..an hour while the PC is on..take t he themometer out and record the temperature.
