PC Randomly Turns Off Without Warning
Jan 8, 2013
Since about 1 month my PC turns randomly off. Sometimes after 10 hours, sometimes after 2. Mostly when in Idle or when I'm watching movies on a second Monitor (TV but it also crashes if it is unplugged so thats not the reason). Sometimes when I try to boot again it wont start except if I turn off the PSU for ~15 seconds. Sometimes when I reboot there's an error message "Asus Anti Surge was triggered".
I already tried:
- Replaced my OCZ ModXstream 600w with a Corsair AX750 PSU
- Stock settings in Bios
- Asus Anti surge deactivated
- Changed the power outlet to another one
My hardware:
i5 3570k @4,3 GHZ
Asus Sabertooth Z77
GeiL Evo Corsa 16GB
Sapphire AMD 6970HD
2 Harddisks 250/500gb
1 SSD OCZ Agility 3 120gb
And like I mentioned 2 different PSU's.
OCZ ModXstream 600w
Corsair AX750

Okay, so a while ago I finished building my new Pc. It was working fine for about 3 days but then it would randomly go black and show the message, "Please select a proper boot device and press a key". Prior to this I had accidently been turning off the power to my computer (it was in a weird position, so when i stretched i would kick the cable). Could having turn off the power caused this? I only did this twiceI also tried connecting it to different sata ports and nothing

I'm having some problems with my computer shutting down randomly. No BSOD. I just reset the BIOS and removed a single GPU, so I am no longer in SLI mode.

I've had a shuttle sk22g2 v2 system that I leave on and sometimes find turned off and occasionally see a BSOD when using. The BSOD happens randomly, flashes on the screen for about 1 sec, and then turns off the PC. I've had this issue since doing a fresh install of Windows 7 ultimate 64 from window XP 64.I don't know if it is related, but I also had an issue where my on board NIC would stop working. I tried fixes from installing different driver versions, restarting services, and restarting the NIC. The only thing that would recover would its functionality be restarting windows. I added a NIC card and that has allowed me to keep network access.

I have this problem with a Packard Bell Desktop computer, It randomly crashes when doing startup, I dont know if its the motherboard, or the HDD. But it crashes after 4-5 min of driving, it starts up at BIOS Screen, with 3 beeps and then it goes to windows startup restore, and it cant startup windows either. So im trying at the moment to format the computer, but it gets the the "Windows Is Loading Files" At the second part of it, it gets half way in the loading, and it random turns off, and it keeps happending all the time, I dont know if its the HDD, or any Hardware Problem in the BIOS, or GPU

My computer will randomly turn off. Only if I am using it. I can turn it on and it will sit forever, but if I use it.Shuts completely off with no warning, no error, nothing. I need to power it back on by pressing the power button. I went to CMOS and turned on restart on system failure and it does not restart. Don't think it's running hot.. at least, my gcard is only doing 48 C which is low. Idk if it's a software issue or hardware?I ran a scan of my computer using ESET NOD32 Smart Security = nothing found.

I have rebuilt my system twice now and my system is still turning off the display and powering down randomly. I have followed all the guide lines for disabling sleep mode and it still randomly stops running by turning off the display and powering down. I have to push the power button again and then Windows start up in diagnostic mode where I can select safe mode if I want.

I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this but, ever since I reformatted my laptop, it randomly freezes for about a second and a stuttering noise comes up. Then the screen turns black. It doesn't shut off because I could see the back light, it just turns completely black. What's causing this problem and how do I fix it? I checked the Event Logger and there are tons of errors and some critical kernal-power things.

my Toshiba laptop screen stays black, my laptop turns on but the screen stays black, I have tried many steps and none has proved, I wonder if it has to do with a cable or is the screen that needs to be replaced.

i am able to turn my computer on for a few seconds but then it automatically shuts itself off after a few seconds but the thing is after letting it sit for a couple seconds it says something about how the clocks on my processor have been overclocked too high and asks if it wants me to restore them, so i do that and then the computer works fine, but then when i turn it off and turn it back on it does the exact same thing until i get that message again.i've tried manually reducing the clocks on my cpu even though they were already at stock clocks and that didnt work
system specs:
windows 7 ultimate 64bit
intel core 2 quad q6600 @ 2.4ghz standard clocks
4gb ddr2-800 ram
ati hd 4760 1gb ddr3

I'm new here and having problems with my computer it keeps shutting down with out warning if I have multiple tabs up it at least has problems shutting down with no warning and pops up to ask me to shut my firefox down or force shut down. I had problems with this computer doing this before and sent it to HP they said they fixed it that only lasted for 3 months and it's doing it again now my contract is up with them for free repair. I open it up and sprayed a can of air into it still didn't do anything to stop it.

I've just moved flat and after I did my computer keeps rebooting itself every so often. There doesn't seem to be any reason to it. I've check that all my fans are still working and that all the cables and cards and what not are corrected install and that something hasn't been knocked but everything seems fine to me. I had a wee gander round the internet and it pointed me to check my system log and the two error codes I'm getting every time this happens is: Event I.D 41 + Event I.D 6008. The I have just recently got a new Graphics card, 4gb extra of ram and a wireless adapter. These were all installed on a clean version of windows 7.

My Gateway NV53 w/W7 HP SP1 works fine, but when on battery in the past week or so, dies (not shuts down) when the battery reaches about 10%.There's a "CLICK!" and the computer goes stone dead and shows abnormal shutdown on reboot.No low battery warnings show.No power settings have been changed.

I have an acer Extensa 5620Z laptop and recently, without any warning it just restarts. A blue screen appears out of nowhere and then the computer restarts. When I was able to choose how to restartt I chose safe mode and went to the event log where it said "The driver detected a controller error on DeviceIdeIdePort2.". I have no idea what this is and I've seen a bunch of stuff talking about reconnecting thing and adding new roms

Here I am, bebopping around the internet (looking for a sleep remedy) and suddenly, a dialog box popped up, saying that windows was updating itself. It looked like a normal Windows screen, "updated" itself, shut itself down, and rebooted to the welcome screen. I did nothing to warrant this, I didn't click on anything unusual. There was no option asking me if I agreed, or wanted it to be done. I use the Norton Web Safe deal, so I do not visit any sites that have the little red warning flag. I've been ignoring some "critical" updates (ones Microsoft thinks, like an updated version of IE) for a while, but I've never had my machine just up and do this on it's own. I'm obviously concerned about a virus, malware or whatever, but do run a current version of Norton Internet Security, which is updated regularly. A full system scan was done yesterdaty, and a quick one this morning the seach found nothing but the normal cookies. Would Windows decide suddenly that it really really needed to update itself like this? Note, I was in a user mode, since I try not to log into the admin, to help avoid unwanted software installing itself.
