computer keeps turning its self off

lately( last 3-4 months) my pc just turns its self of which is quite annoying when ure in the middle of something , it happined very rarely at the start but its happening regularly now anybody any ideas ( i have checked for any nasties but the pc is nasty free ) :confused

 

Hi there Paul70 the thing is you might think you have no nasties, but it may be something that has been missed with the scans you have ran, i suggest you click on this link http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35407 , follow all the instructions, if something dosen't run, don't worry just continue, if you get stuck with anything don't be afraid to ask, then after everything is done post the logs into the malware forum, then be patient as the malware fighters can get really busy at times, but they will get round to helping you !

Some of the scans on the malware forum are deep scans and dig out some of the more nasties that some of your normal scans miss !

Good Luck Rusty !

 

When you say "my pc just turns its self off" do you mean it goes through the shutdown sequence or it just immediately goes blank and perhaps starts a reboot on it's own.

If it's not going through the shutdown sequence but just going blank, you may have a hardware issue such as bad RAM or possibly bad capacitors on the mainboard.
