Remove everything from the PC which you isn't part of originally, like gaming card, printer etc. Then check if the problem persists. If not then we know if it is something caused by some addition, or whether it is from something it came with originally. Also, most Dells today come with a recovery partition from which you can restore the system to factory defaults. Use that to restore the system, then check if the problem persists. Also, most Dells don't come with separate installation media, so if you haven't done so already, after the factory restore, make sure you make your own recovery DVDs/CDs. There should be a utility installed that allows you to do that. That's always the first thing to do.

Thanks rindi for your suggestion, however pl note the steps I have already performed
> My system came with Utility Partition also with the OS Media / Recovery Disks
> Removed Killer Gaming Card, Printers, even Lan Connection - Bang still remains
> Removed 3 gb Memory and tried with only 1 Gb - no go
> Did Pc Restore without any additonal cards - Issue remains
> Did OSRI Issue Remains
> Diags on System Board + Proc + Memory passes
> Have come to a conclusion that it could be Processor itself - still rethinking on replacement

I wanted to say Vista, sorry. The failsafe would be in the BIOS if it exists.
