suggestions gratefully recieved


(thats if i can get back on to read them :()
 
Re: buggered pc

it might be worth someone checking out the power pack isn't faulty if it keeps shutting off!

Hope you get it sorted soon and cheaply too:)
 
Re: buggered pc

cheers hr....someone said that to me yesterday, i havent got a clue though lol at this rate its gonna end up out the naffin window :D
 
Re: buggered pc

A bit more info would help. Does Windows load? how far does it get before it shuts down? how are you SURE there isn't a virus at work?
 
Re: buggered pc

actually come to think of it, had similar problem with mine and it ended up something to do with the motherboard being faulty, luckily it was under warranty so they came and fixed it.

Get chav to look at it, he's pretty good at taking comps apart but he might take a while to put it back together again :rolleyes: :p ;)
 
Re: buggered pc

Have you checked for something really basic and simple like is your plug in the socket firmly? Is the plug firmly wired? If a wire works loose that could simply be cutting off the electrical supply.

Heatsink could be blocked with dust and making processor overheat, always look at the easy options 1st :)

sometimes windows loads and sometimes it goes off before its got to that stage, it can go off within seconds of me turning it on, then sometimes it can stay on for half an hour

Ah YES those little sparks of the chavster, tho u burnt your nose & other bits & bobs by seems of it:rolleyes: :D Maybe u should go & enquire with them chav?
 
My PC was doing similar thing and I found out it was the processor overheating.. I've had to leave the side panel off and its not been to bad since. (ooh the shame!) :D
 
there's nothing hot on it though mancie, ive had the case off it for a few days now, its still doing the same
