Computer Dying Anonymous 2017-01-12 07:11:47 Post No. 250065 [Report]

My pc shuts down randomly, not crash but just shut down. After it shuts down it attempts to restart on its own and just before it gets to the bios screen it shuts down again. This started happening randomly a few days back. My motherboard and cpu temperatures are in range. I cleaned all the dust in the computer. The event manager shows no errors. Disk manager shows all disks are healthy. My graphics card is working as intended. I don't know what the problem is. Although the computer makes more whirring noises, I'm not sure what part. It's as if it's under stress, but the task manager shows it's normal.

What do I do?

its either overheating and the processor needs repasting or its a faulty memory stick, usually secondery one and when you use enough ram to go to the seconds stick it shuts down, or at a push i have had sata cables cause this

youve reminded me of an error I suffered myself.

The cpu and heat sink were assembled by me and my trusted ally...

so they were actually lose, and the cpu occasionally went "GAAAH SHIT HOT CAN'T HOLD IT! ALERT SHUT DOWN OR I MELT! BEEEEEEP!" and thats what happened to me.

Better cpu cooling gel and connect up?

Ok thanks, I'll try this out, but I doubt it's this. As I said even if I'm doing nothing, as in without any cpu / ram load, the computer still shuts down

Here are the readouts, gpu fan is at 0 rpm because of no load but it works. My processor and gpu range is way higher. After cleaning it, I played a games on it on ultra settings and the computer didn't shut down. Left it idle for 2 hours, it started to make beeping noises and the problem returned. Anyone with a diagnosis?

check your fans, they are prone to die, then your shit overheats and shut down. also check your power supply, they also get covered in dust/shit and stop.
