Hi

I found the problem. Opened minidump and used Windebug and found the problem was the graphic card driver. I uninstalled Ati from device manager and add and remove programs. Temps show up with Everest and Speecy. Computer no longer is shutting down and restarting.

Thanks again for your help. Doug
