    After uninstall download the new one browser don't use again that setup which you are using previously.

    Getting problem for the network and after checking all the system for 3-4 hours and at the end you came to know that your wire is unplugged is really messed up.No words

    I would check the traces to the ethernet port.

    maybe some strange RAM error, but majority of hard to trace errors are due to faulty motherboard, and today that means - check caps first (if this error was not from beginning)...
    And problem is - they, caps, could be visually good, but can make problems after some time of being stressed...

    And memtest is tool, for testing RAM, if RAM passes all tests, with high probability, can be claimed that RAM is good - and fault is at motherboard (sometimes PSU, but motherboard if first place to look)...

    And as so many times here repeated, CPU-vrm is first place to fix (highest load - can do all sort of nasty things to whole motherboard)...

    There's not enough alcohol in the world to make me feel better right now.

    No, I saw the page fault error but it only showed up once the backup was running. Otherwise the machine never showed any signs of a memory issue. Took five days to capture the BSOD in a state where the machine couldn't reset and I could actually see the damn problem.
    Memtest weeded out the problems to two 1gb sticks that were failing memtest in any slot. Right now I'm loping along with two Corsair 512mb DIMMs until some replacement ram shows up.

    That's definitely not a classic symptom!

    The usual symptom is a BSOD with code 0x00000050, 0x0000004E or 0x0000008E. Or a bogus file-not-found error.

    At least with a RAM slot issue, it looks common to get a file copy error when trying to reinstall Windows. Or BSOD 0x00000050. (PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA)

    If you don't receive any of the errors I mentioned, the RAM is probably fine.

    So next time you need to run MEMtest386 for around a day to cook the ram and see if it fails.

    Another 24 hours under a full battery of regular use and still no interruptions.
    Problem solved.

    Actually, I'm curious. The only variable here other than the ram was the cover being off. Let me put that back on and see what happens in another 24.

    Like I said, I don't want to troubleshoot the router in this thread. No, heat is not the problem. And both routers reboot when this happens, even though they are completely different brands and models.

    Regarding the bad cable comment - that doesn't explain why the router would reboot.

    I'm glad to see you have found the problem to your issue, pentium.

    Was streaming from twitch and youtube while connected to three IRC servers and it's been pretty quiet for the last 24 hours and everything seems to of calmed down.

    After a week of frustrating trying to backup only for it to randomly crash I found that two of my sticks of RAM are bad. Either they didn't survive the VRM on the old board blowing up or that's what you get when you buy cheap unbranded ram.
    Just in case for some extremely odd reason it was that glitching the chipset out I'll try load testing the system again with my remaining (and memtest passed) ram.

    I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I'd like to add that I have what appears to be an extremely similar problem. Except in my case, the router restarts *most* of the time when I get that "A Network Cable is Unplugged" message. Even more weird is the fact that sometimes the message pops up before my router restarts, and sometimes the router doesn't restart at all but I still get the message. And if that's not enough, I have also tried 2 completely different routers with 2 completely different power supplies, multiple computers connected with different ethernet cables, and I know both routers work without problem back in my parents house. So what gives? I don't know. All I know is that I am in an area with lots of military bases around, and cell-phone coverage also tends to go off every now and then for a second or two (but it doesn't coincide with the router going out). But that doesn't happen as often as my internet going out.

    So I don't know what the hell is going with my stuff either, but I just wanted to throw this out here in case it turns out to be the same problem. And oh yeah - sometimes the router will restart by itself without any of my computers being on. I wonder if this could be some kind of external bot attack.

    BTW, I don't know how our internet is handled since I am in a dorm complex and all we really get is just a Cat5e jack from the wall. But in any case, whatever is connected on the other side of the ethernet cable, I don't think it should be able to make my router restart.

    Again, I'm not trying to solve my problem here since this is pentium's thread, but just wanted to state my observations as this could potentially be the same problem.
    Heat?

    is router wireless type?
