Random Power Shut Offs! Help!

[i_D_r]

To put it simply, my computer randomly looses power spontaneously every few hours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Diagnosis plxs?

Could be a number of things.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-Scan with anti-virus and spyware scanners.

 

 

 

-Could also be your system overheating.

 

 

 

-Have you installed any hardware recently?

-its not a virus

 

 

 

-it could be, i moved my computer not thinking recently to place of poor air circulation.

 

 

 

-no hardware installed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

im thinkin its the cpu overheating- it only shuts down when im playing rs, which is resourceful since it eats up the cpu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ill keep you updated, thanks for the help.

Its either fan, overheating(can be poor circulation etc) or your power supply.

It's most likely you power supply dieing.

if you use a power strip and its on the ground make sure that your not kicking it or in any way touching it.

This may sound wierd... But the same thing happens to me. It only happens when a laptop or another computer is plugged into the same power point. Considering I have extension leeds running from extension leeds...ect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Check your power supply.
