Description:
The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer TRIPLEJLY that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{5008C108-EA86-400A. The master browser is stopping or an election is being forced.

This is nothing to worry about. It just means that you are on the same network without a server, so an election is held everytime 1 PC is turned on when the other is already on. If you look at his events, you will see this same message.

Edit; I would advise going to the ASUS site and getting the latest drivers for your Mobo. It is quite possible that a current driver has become corrupted. By reinstalling and/or upgrading your drivers you will solve a corrupted driver problem. If the problem persists, it may be an indication of imminent hardware failure.

Also, I get some promptings by Spybot Tea Timer at every start of Windows about the following registry changes:

Process:
c:\Winnt\system32\dxdllreg.exe

Values to be deleted related to that process:

Does noone have any ideas about these??

Re: Periodic Rebootings...

dxdllreg - dxdllreg.exe - Process Information
Process File: dxdllreg or dxdllreg.exe
Process Name: Microsoft DXDllRegExe

Description:
dxdllreg.exe is an application which is supposed to request you register your Version of DirectX, however sometimes it stays resident. Should be removed from the startup.

Re: Periodic Rebootings...

Is there some program I can run to test my hardware? Randomly replacing parts to see what causes the rebootings isn't really feasible...
