PXI-1000B randomly reboots

[jchavinfuntoday]

I'm currently using a PXI-1000B chassis with a PCI-8156B Controller running Win 2k.I have 5 PXI modules installed.THe problem

is that the machine randomly reboots(restarts) itself.I  currently am using the 150 watt supply I noticed that the max current on this

supply is 10 amps @ 3.3 vdc, my current requirement is 8.5 amps.Is it possible that the supply current could vary maybe below my

required 8.5 amps? Is it easy to monitor the DC voltages on this power supply? Is it the Controller and its relationship to the OS?

PS

I've already replaced the chassis and power supply once (died)

Hi,

I think it would help if we could get a crash dump from windows to help us determine what is causing the crashes.  You can set your OS to automatically restart
when it randomly reboots.  If you could then get a kernal memory dump from Windows, this might help us determine what is actually causing the reboots.

Thanks!
