Another thing you may have to look at is maybe your power supply is not running enough power to your PC. these are just some things to look for, when your system turns off and leaves you scratching your head if your PC just turns off on it's own. Another reason for this maybe DEAD PEOPLE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Do you see a "RPC" timing down? Start - Run : CMD and enter: "shutdown /a" ) Do check if your memory is tight in (twss) and BIOS update check? I had one time before that was doing that and I had a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
