It might just be too high temperatures that makes your system unstable...

What is your memory configuration? How many sticks do you have and what are their sizes and speeds? Machines with Athlon XP processors and GeForece video cards seem to have this problem when there's a memory problem.

after next blue screen, go into bios to hardware monitor to check cpu fan speed & temperature

Were both sticks of memory purchased together and identical or did you install one of them later?

Simply knowing that this action resulted in a change in the problem indicates that you are heading in the right direction. It sounds to me like you had a mixing of memory speeds on your motherboard. It is also possible that a stick of memory simply went bad on you. You can troubleshoot this further by running the machine with one stick installed at a time and taking note of whether or not your problem persists.

It sounds like your PC got reconfigured somehow to simply reboot when a blue screen error occurs. Try to right-click My Computer -> Advanced Tab -> Startup Options and check to see if the Automatically Reboot check box is checked. You can also check Event Viewer if it's a Windows 2000/XP machine in the System log to see what's happening at the time the machine reboots. All blue screen (stop errors) will be logged there even if you automatically reboot.

The wattage count isnt as important as the quality of the PSU (i.e., bigger is not always better). A quality PSU will have stable rails (and help to prevent PSU induced restarts)

What motherboard do you have? Run CPUz (www.cpuid.com) and check the mainboard tab to find out :)

Yes but usually with that the mobo kicks in (hopefully) ;)

Since when?

This is a good step indeed but usually by the time you get to the hardware monitor the temp will have dropped a bit ... and it doesnt help to isolate voltage problems. A better route would be to use a monitoring application like MBM5/AsusProbe and have it record data until you crash and then you can have a look just before the failpoint :)

Shouldnt matter. If the sticks were "incompatible" they wouldnt have booted.

Yah thats usually a bit wierd (i.e., a lot of systems dont like mixing between 1600/2100 and 2700+ memories). In either case, if the machine booted than its running all three sticks at 2100 :)
Quote:

Quite so :) Running a whole bunch of memory tests (including the BIOS one) will help to eliminate/validate this possibility
Quote:

That's most likely a heat/voltage induced restart
