Peculiar shut downs
I am having a weird little random shut down problem with my new build. Specs shown below.
Recently got all the cd/dvd-cd-rom drivers and video drivers working, and now I get these random shutdowns. Sometimes, when I just click on a new mail reciept, sometimes when I click on a website, sometimes all by itself when I'm not doing anything. I don't think it's heat. My temps are: CPU = 43 C SYS = 32 C PWM = 32 C (what is PWM ?) Any suggestions ?

You're having shutdowns, not restarts?
What are the complete system specs? List by brand and model please. Did you install something new just before this happened? Have you scanned for viruses, spyware, trojans and hijackers with updated definitions? Do you have a lot of background programs running on your computer? Cricket

Interesting, hasn't done it today. I may have had to many things open at the time.
When on-line racing, we use TeamSpeak and there seems to be some issues with the program. We may switch to Ventrillo, or Roger Wilco. Thanks again. |

Hmmm, if that game uses a lot of cpu it may be over heating and shutting down.
Of course, could be a lot of things, psu, overheating, virus etc. Give us as much info as you can remeber and maybe we can narrow it down for you. Regards............................Sterling
