lack of ram will not restart your computer it will only cause the program your running to come up with an error. on my old dell computer with a p4 i had 1gb of ram and turned of virtual memory so i was running JUST off my ram. every time sro used to much ram it would just crash and say something about not enough ram (its been awhile sense then but its close enough).
first off check your memory sticks one at a time and use prime95 to stress the system. get a program called speedfan and have that open when your stressing your system. if anything gets close to 100C that could be your problem. driver issues just go get the latest drivers from the makers site. for faulty power supply it should be also found in the prime95 test.
on my current computer my gpu overheats like hell unless i underclock it. when it does overheat it causes the computer to crash i get a blank screen for a min and my computer restarts.
I cleaned the CPU fan, and the CPU itself from dust, and waiting for the results, however I noticed that most of the time my PC restarts is only during when SRO uses 800 MB of RAM or more, could that be a clue to something?
My PS is working fine, I assure that.
