When I play with AI or Players online, Lan, my computer restarts. The time it happens varietes from 5 minutes till 1 hour. I have installed TASpring on enother computer, and it works fine there. How to fix this problem?

hmm. I have renewed the cooler a month ago. I am sure it is not a problem. But anyway, thanks.

You also might want to give your memory a once over. If you have multiple chips a bad one will cause behavior similar to that. If you know what your doing inside a computer (if you don't, you might fry every component in there), I'd suggest pulling them out and starting the computer with one at a time, a bad one will usually crash before windows even finishes starting.
In the meantime, try to minimize how often you let it crash like that. There is a chance that a key file, named system and without an extension, can get corrupted, making windows fail to start. If that happens you'll need an xp installation disk (not some cheap, system restore disk pre-builts like to come with) to repair your windows installation or re-install.
