Re: Computer randomly shuts off
[ QUOTE ]
Probably not. Your not really providing enough information. Is there any similarities that you've noticed when it reboots? Like it's hot that day. You've got a lot of apps running? Your burning a cd?
Could be a bad power supply. Could be a bad cpu. Bad memory. Overheating cpu. Could be a lot.
Best guess if it's not a fairly new computer and this problem has just started happening, bad memory.

I usually have 30+ programs running and have had no problems, although it might be catching up. Power supply was the reason for the first 3 shut-offs.
I've had the computer for about 10 months. Only upgrade I've made to it is adding a half a gig of memory (512 to 1024) to the computer. Been meaning to get a stick of a gig or two of memory when I have excess cash.
So it could be memory/power supply.
Btw, running 35 programs right now.
