I recently built three machines exactly the same for some friends who have their own DVD productions company.

They mainly use the machines for adbode premiere, phtoshop, after effects etc aswell as word and internet etc.

I built these just before christmas and they are having a weird problem that i cannot figure out, every so often 2 of the machines reboot automatically or the monitors go off and show digital power saving mode????

I know its not the montiors as when i try to ping the machine that stops from another machine it does respond so it has obviously crashed.

I have tested a few different things and it only seems to happen when they have multiple adobe applications open????? however i could be wrong, the strange thing is that only 2 out of the 3 machines do this and they are all exactly the same right down to the mouse and keyboard.

The specs are below but i am completly stumped here and dont know what to do next.

Abit IP35-E (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Antec P182 Super Midi Tower Case - No PSU (Gun Metal Black)
Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO 512MB DDR2 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail
Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition" 2.40GHz - Retail
Pioneer DVR-212D 18x18 DVD±RW Serial ATA Dual Layer ReWriter - (Black) OEM
Western Digital Caviar SE16 500GB SATA-II 16MB Cache
Corsair HX 520W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU
OCZ 8GB PC2-5400C5 Dual Channel DDR2 (4 x 2GB Sticks)
Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 3000 Black - OEM

I would really appreciate all your help on this one guys as they need these machines ASAP.

just to check guys do you increase the voltage through the bios or is there a different way as i increased the voltage to 2.0 and it is still booming out
 
justed tried 2.1 there as well and it boomed out what would be the maxium that i could increase it to
