Okay.
My friend's husband's computer was struck by lightning, not the computer but the warehouse
Anyways my friend and I went to go take a look at it. some of the camera's were not working, some were. It's a 16 Channel GV-650. on a Pentium 4 3.0 GHZ
Well we restarted it to take a look at the memory as it was running kinda slow, and the computer booted up really slowly in DOS, so slow we came to the conclusion that it needed more memory and maybe a new motherboard.
Well my friend sent me an AMD Athlon 2200 which is about 1.81 Ghz, and I installed the video card again, and the surveillence card along with a sata PCI card as the HD for the Geovision is on Sata.
took the computer home, reinstalled Windows XP because the HD was missing some files, and the computer booted up great. The software starts for the camera's, no problem
I get back hook it up at the warehouse, and the software boots up, and it reboots the computer 2 minutes later. I uninstalled the software for the Geovision, reinstalled and even tried the 800 Geovision card, and still the same problem
I can disable Geovision from starting up, and the computer runs just great.
I was thinking that it's the AMD computer, maybe the processor is bad or too small,
so I went out and bought a Asus Motherboard
Specs on Mobo are as follows Intel GMA X4500 GPU intergrated on the board
runs DDR3
and the processor is a 2.6GHz Intel Celeron Dual core
I'm hoping this will fix the solution as I'm confused.
I do need to add the watchdog 2 pin jumper cable back in, but wasn't sure if this was causing it or not to keep rebooting
Thanks
