They have replaced the RAM now. Didn't seem to be the CPUs causing it (they did a stress test), and all the other components seemed ok. So hopefully this was the culprit, and it fixes it :cool:

Interesting. Didn't think of that. I just assumed they work on their own (like hard drives do). I'll see if it happens - and failing that, I'll put the other one back in and see if it occurs when both are in together. I almost wish it happened more often, so I could get this tracked down quicker lol

8 days without a reboot. I've now swapped the RAM out with the other one, to see if it does it. I guess if it does, then its the RAM. Lets see what happens

Thanks. I've just submitted a ticket so they are in the loop (especially if it does turn out to be the RAM). Fingers crossed it is that! (as thats a relatively simple fix)

Touch wood - now reboots since I took that RAM out. Although, the last time I commented and said it hadn't done it (after taking out the network card), it then went and crashed... so lets see :rolleyes:

haha thats the one :D I've got 2 little geekom mini-pc's that I use to run my backups (I backup all my web servers to them). So the PC really doesn't have anything to do overnight except waste power :) I've always turned off the machine at night (unless something was running that I needed to...

haha I'm sure I jinx myself - it just did a reboot! I'm going to take out one of the RAM chips now to see if it happens. I'm guessing its not the network card after all

No crashes so far after taking out the network card! Fingers crossed thats it (I'm not sure what the fix is though, as I still need that card for my Bluetooth connections so I can have the mouse / speakers etc running through it)

Ah ok cool - thats good to know Right - I'll give that a go as well then. OK :) Cool - thats how I did it :) Good to know that the pagesys file is also removed, as thats is a bug bear of mine, especially with higher RAM rates. My old PC only had a 256gb SSD for the primary, and 32gb of that...

Hi, Thanks for your detailed look. I did do a RAM check using MemTest: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/pc-rebooting-itself.98334/post-752588 I can do your suggestion though if you think its beneficial. The machine is running at 14gb usage currently - so it may be a bit tight...

Oops. Thought I had! Please try it now: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KPhyeHy2YfYbOKq1Jm2xTvcbki-Tq97n/view?usp=drivesdk

ok here is the dump file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KPhyeHy2YfYbOKq1Jm2xTvcbki-Tq97n/view?usp=drive_link Hopefully it has something helpful, as its getting a bit stressful with these reboots. I just lost 30 minutes worth of work that I'd done :( (I can't autosave, as its to a live...

It just did a reboot on me - so may not be the card after all. Just running Sysnative now and will upload the files once its completed

Interesting. I just assumed any cable would do it? I obviously moved the cable from my old PC to the new one. This is the one I ordered: HABAGOU PCIE Cable for Corsair, 65cm(26inch) PSU 8 Pin to 6+2 Pin PCIE Power Cable for Thermaltake, Male to Male Modular GPU Cable for ARESGAME...

I've ordered a new cable (only a £12 one - hopefully its up to the job). Will give the card a go on the old machine when that arrives tomorrow By fully home, you mean clicked in? I believe so (its a bit of a weird cable, in that you have the 6+2 - not sure why they don't just have 8 on one?)...

I do have it - but its a bit of a faff testing it, as it means I need to take the PSU cable from the new machine, and put it back in there (and this case isn't very easy to get into the PSU stuff without dismantling a chunk of the case :/)

It hasn't crashed yet in the last 48 hours. So, I guess it is possible it's the GFX card. It was working fine in my old machine, so its a bit odd if that is the case

Ok cool. I'll see how this goes for the next few days. If it reboots in that time, I'll do a Sysnative dump and upload it :)

I've removed the card physically now. Also, run DDU. I still see this in device manager: Is this from the iGPU?

I'm going away for a few days now - but will give the card disabling a go tomorrow. I'm guessing just disconnecting the power cable should be enough? (its a bit of a faff getting the card in and out due to the size of it!)
