Potential Motherboard issues

Hi all

My system currrenttly runs on a Gygabyte GA-K8NXP-SLI F6 Motherboard, It has an AMD 64 Processor with 1 x 8GB IDE system disk anda RAID SATA storage drive. With 2GB RAM

This evening it sut down for no reason. Now when I try and reboot, about halfway through the Windows screen it re-boots. It does the same in safe mode. I have tried booting with no usb devices attached. I have also tried re-imaging the system disk.

My guess is the Motherboard has died. I will try it with various memory combinations in the morning.

Can anyone suggest anything else to try. I am assuming the system disk is still ok but I can find a spare one to test.

If it is the motherboard, anyone know when I can get another of the above (apart from EBay) or suggest an alternative that I can get that I can just slot my peripherals into. Graphics card is a ATI Radion PCIe with its own connection from the PSU.

Any suggestions welcome

Thanks.
