My computer is weird...Whenever I log onto my user account. Then after ten second the computer shuts down with no warning. It is random and I can't prevent it. Please help!!!
Have you tried Safe Mode or when you start up go into the menu where it says safe mode and choose I eblieve restore to when my computer last worked or somethina long those lines. What Operating System are you running?
I have tried System Restore and Safe Mode. It happens in both. It is just a straight shut off. No prior warning. It just turns off. I have looked in safe mode. I have had the taskmanager open and it has turned off and I saw no unknown process appear. It shutsdown in safe mode. System restore does not work. I can't afford buying a external hard drive to put all my stuff on. I dont have my old windows cd because the OS came installed when I bought it. So really I can't reformat because I don't have the original cd. Thanks root and computergen. Anymore help would be appreciated.
I found that when I had this problem before it was because a new PSU I bough was slightly larger and rested on the CPU fan, consequently the CPU overheated and some kind of thermal protection cut in...
MY psu now sits on top of the case...
If you take the side off you'll be able to see if any fans are stuck or obstructed, you'll also be able to touch some heatsinks to find out how hot they aer and hot likely it is to be an overhating issue.
