Random Reboots

My personal computer appears to be plagued by a hardware failure, probably something to do with the hard disk. For some hours now, a spontaneous reboot has occured about once every 30 10 minutes on average. Not so fun if you're in the middle of doing something :(

Update: It turned out to be a defective memory module, which has now been replaced.

I was misguided by some entries in the system event log. After running some meory tests, I concluded that the real cause is a defect memory module.

I've removed that module for now and haven't had any crashes since.
