Greetings and salutations. I just heard my R1 reboot. Any suggestions?

Cover your ears or put plugs in. Solved

It did it by itself.

That's not good shouldn't auto reboot ever.

[Alex49H]

It did it once this week or yesterday and sometime like last week or the week before.

Could it be overheating?

It should be ventilated and on a hard surface (not carpet) and not covered.

Common cause of rebooting is overheating as said above.

I had just moved it to on top of my desk when it rebooted. When you say ventilated do you mean the room or nothing around it?

I think they mean nothing around it.

It is behind the monitor and I wasn't gaming or on the web.

Yeh, just nothing around it really. Covering the vents, or under it that could insulate it, or in a cupboard with not much space (because it will kick out a little heat and then recirculate that heat). You don't need a fan to cool it or anything like that though.

Ok, my screen kicks out some serious heat so perhaps it was overheating to some extent.

But more likely is that you were just moving it, perhaps a slightly loose connection with the adaptor, maybe it wasn't seating fully.

Check that adaptor is pushed right in - I had something similar happen only a few days ago because an adaptor wasn't.

 

Either way, keep an eye on it but it's probably nothing to worry about.
