Ok so recently when using firefox and im using my mouse wheel to search the pages my computer suddenly restarts. It happens randomly but fairly often. I thought it might be a problem with my pc but ive tried google chrome for the last day or so and ive not had one problem. I really cant stand chrome so im putting this out there to see if anyone could diagnose my problem.

thanks

Did you try another mouse?

Also make sure that you have the latest version of the graphics display and the mouse driver.

Try to boot the computer in Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that works.

Well everything is up to date and booting in safe mode there doesn't seem to be a problem.
