My computer suddenly turn off without any warning.I tried even reformat my
computer but it still turn off itself. It just turn off.But i can enter safe
mode. Sometimes it takes about 2 minutes, sometimes i can't even get to the
login screen. Can some1 help me????
 
the first thing i would look at is to open the case and check ALL the fans
are going, it could be an overheating problem. pete
 
hhmmm, have you had the pc for a while, it happened to me about 6 months ago
and it turned out to be the power supply, but it was strange as it only
happened when i burnt a cd, but i think the drive was taking power from the
power supply and it couldnt supply enough, but i replaced the power supply
and i have not had a problem since, just a thought, does it just turn off
like you were switching it off at the plug or does it shutdown like normal???
 
Could be that cpu is over-heating. Have a look at system health properties in
BIOS & check temperature of CPU.
I also had an issue like this once and it turned out that the power supply
wasnt distributing enough power across the board, and was resolved by buying
a 55W power supply
 
correction - 550W power supply

It just turn off like i was switching it off at the plug. So u both think i
have to change my power supply? currently my power supply is 480W.
 
yes thats what it sounds like, they are not that expensive and are very easy
to change, hope you get it sorted out, all the best, pete ;-)
 
Thanks for all the advise :)

I would think it is a power supply issue. I had one do the same thing when I
added an extra hard drive. The old one just could not spin it up without
shutting down.
 
please give click on the link on my post " was this helpful to you" im trying
to get my point up...."what do points make.......happy users!!!"
 
i had mine about 4 years, if i was you i would take it back to the shop,
everybody that has replied to your post is 99% certain that it sound like the
power supply so i would get it checked over or just replace it yourself. pete
 
Pete i got something to ask u. how long u bought ur computer before this
occur? Because it happen to me only after 3-4 months i bought the computer.
