will
just shut down . what can i do to put this right
More info is needed..
Laptop or desktop?
Any error messages or does it just shut off without warning?
It may be overheating. If a laptop, ensure that the air intakes and outlets
are not being blocked. Always use it on a rigid, flat surface.
If a desktop, the internal fans may be clogged up with dust. Remove the side
cover and take a look. Dust will build up on the CPU fan and heatsink. take
a good look at this because dust trapped between the fan and heatsink is
less obvious than you may imagine. Another place to look is the intakes on
the power supply. Remove as much dust as you can from inside the case. If
you can, detach the front panel and remove all dust build up..
