To whom it may concern,
First, I'd like to make note that I have read dozens of threads related to my problem and I will be troubleshooting based on that knowledge. Also, I have included all needed information about my computer below.
I replaced the 20GB Maxtor HD that came with the Shuttle with a 60GB Maxtor HD an installed Windows XP SP2. The system worked fine for about a day. Then it began to power itself off and on in random intervals. Sometimes it will cycle through 8 immediate reboots before it even brings up XP. Other times it will run for about an hour and a half (max). The odd part is the turning back on. Sometimes it is instant and sometimes it waits 5 minutes (max) before it turns back on.
I really appriciate anybodies time devoted to this. Thank you.
