Guest 90accordman Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 virus FTL, that would be the best thing, could be power supply over heating, video card problems a number of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3r3k Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 used to have the problem about 2 hours after being turned on, it turned out i didnt dust it in so long that the dust caused it to over-heat even with 5 fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MegaloManiac Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 sometimes its due to a lack of power. but a virus could be the issue if its been running steady then all of a sudden a kick in the face happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 90accordman Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 seems all it was is a heat issue i spoke with him on aim, and he just needs to clean it, it only turns off if he has it on days at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amalan Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 go to my computer->right click-> properties->Advanced tab-> click settings on Startup and Recovery-> uncheck the box Automatically restart. Next time it fails itll give you the "blue screen of death" but itll give you an error code. write that down then post that back in here or google it.

Guest ElJaco119 Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 My Old computer used to restart by itself about 30min after being turned on or it would shutdown as soon as i started it. After a while, i found out that it was KaZZa Lite and Imesh that were stuffing it up. Just recently it fried due to power-box failure :'( so know i got a laptop and i use that.
