What you suggested and your analysis are totally right, and you must have
realised that I am behaving as a desperate, and may I add I am.
Today I tried another thing; again out of desperation, I changed my hard
drive which is a 40GB with a an 80 GB, still reboots, what does this
indicate, it only shows us that the fault is not from the hard drive, I am
not sure that this a step forward to solution, so still looking for one.

You did shotgunning. Instead of trying to identify the problem, you.
tried to cure it with fans.
First, if computer is afflicted by heat, then computer hardware is
defective. Heat is how to identify bad hardware. In your case, the
problem is not 'hard' enough to see it everytime. So put the computer
in a 100 degree F room and run it. If problem is make 'harder' by
heat, then heat will make that problem easier to find even with
diagnostics.
Second, if heat can make a problem obvious, then testing that
computer in a 70 degree F room while selectively heating sections with
a hair dryer on highest heat setting may also identify a suspect. Just
a second way of using heat to collect fans. Again we are only in an
'identify the suspect' mode; not yet ready to fix anything.
Third, you have powerful numbers to identify suspects. Identify
what driver involves memory location 0804DBC8E from a dump table.
Then get useful replies by posting new information here. Information
so useful because it comes from numbers.
Four, any computer that needs more than one 80mm or 120 mm fan for
cooling has hardware defects. Too many never learned these basic
concepts. Too many fix thing using the same joke in Tim Allen's "Home
Improvement". "More Power!" is an obvious mocking of those who want
to solve problems with "More Fans!".
We want to solve the problem - not cure symptoms.
Your problem is not any more complicated. But made complex when you
try to fix things rather than get facts. I still don't even see
information from the system (event) logs. Nor do I see numbers from
the 3.5 digit multimeter. I only see that you tried to fix it without
first identifying a suspect. Therefore this post provides no new or
useful information because it replies to a post that did not provide
numbers, the afflicted driver name, and details from significant log
entries.

Today I tried two things:
1- Today I turned my computer on about 10 a.m. and logged on a program but
did not work on it, I brought a fan and placed it over the computer and let
the computer run for about 8 hours; it did not reboot went on perfectly, so
one would think the rebooting was the result of over heating, 2- so I fixd an
auxialary fan inside the computer as to boost cooling, to my surprise no
effect it went back to rebooting, the outside fan was off. I think that makes
things more complicated.
