Hi Rob,

I suspect you're about to learn a lot more ;-)

There's no likely reason that Grinder would cause your system to reboot,
which implies that it is likely a hardware issue. Random guesses at what it
could be are either your CPU overheating due to the load Grinder is putting
on it (unlikely), or memory (more likely), or a failing disk drive (most
likely).

You didn't say what OS you are using. If it is Linux then in
/var/log/syslog or similar you might see some error messages that might
indicate the cause of the problem. In Windows you need to browse to
Settings / Admin Tools / Event Manager (from memory) and look in the System
events.

Its unlikely that the Grinder logs are going to tell you anything
interesting, but there should be two logs in the Grinder log directory, of
which the data log is the one you referred to above. The other log contains
events that the Grinder has logged in the course of the test.

Hope that helps,
Gary
