Suddenly restarts/reboots itself.

Post by ppku »

When starting both SFP and ASIO Host, it is matter of 5-15mins when computer shuts itself. No BSODs etc.
Which might be the malfunctioned component in pulsar2+ (6dsp) card? capacitors, chips, etc..?
By using the system with one pulsar1 card now, it seems stable.
Is there possibility to get the malfunctioned board working. Atleast i dont want to give up without a decent fight.

if it is just the capacitors then you could get them replaced by a local electronics guy. but usually a bad card wont even start, what if you start your computer and dont run scope application, does it still crash?

maybe the other board is just enough to draw too much power, and the power supply is on the edge of usefulness.
there are programs you can get which will show you what the PSU voltages are doing.

also your system might be overheating and the card tips it over the edge.

Wrong alert. The cards are working fine. Now there is only mobo and cpu left under suspicion.
I tested with "CPU Stability Test" without SFP and ASIO running, and instant reboot happened.

This problem is beyond the scope of this discussion board. Thank you anyway!
