Peanat Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Good day I have a question for a Technical hand. Or anyone else that can assist me. I have a very unique fault on my pc and seem to not find the solution. My computer starts up all fine and I monitored my temperature on various parts in my computer and all is at normal with the highest at 50 degrees C. My computer will just randomly do a "warm shut down". Meant by that: The screen will go blue. Sound will stop working and so will everything else. Here is what I have never encountered before. All my fans in my PC will continue to run at full speed. The only control I have over it is opening of the dvd rom and force shut down, by holding the power button in. Thats it. Nothing else. When I turn it on again it would run fine. Sometimes it does not even do this at all and sometimes it does it all the time. My gut says to my it might be my power supply. I tested the power supply at a local shop and the tested it all fine. There is no pattern to follow the fault which makes it not so easy to me. Please assist me and feel free to ask any details. I am in dire need of some expertise.

KenB Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Hi and welcome to ExTS I tested the power supply at a local shop and the tested it all fine. Was it tested under load ? Also - you say that the problem is random. It could be that the PSU was behaving itself when under test. The easiest way to decide if it is your PSU or not is to swap it for a known good one. Do you have a spare - or can you borrow one ? Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !!
