My computer keep turning of itself while iam playin´ a game listen to mp3 and looking on internet. Sometimes just when iam cheking IE. i never know when. and iam really cerius why it keep turn of itself. I got Windows XP and a Fiujutsi Siemens omputer. I thought it was that i got "over heated", can it be?
Does it just turn off like it lost power, or is it a normal shutdown where it goes through all the steps and saves your settings. If it just turns off, you proabaly haver power issues. Either your computer's power supplys is messed up, or you have a poor outlet. Test your outlet and make sure its sufficient for your computer.
The above link allows you to download a utility that will display the CPU and case temperature in your system tray.
Windows has an auto shut off facility when the computer reaches a certain temperature. I believe you can alter this setting from the BIOS.
If it is an overheating problem then check to see if there is any dust in the CPU fan. It can build up quite easily. Also check to see whether the fan is connected securely and that the power wire is on its pins on the motherboard properly.
It might be something to do with overloading the memory but I doubt it as that should only cause the computer to crash.
It doesn't matter where you put the motherboard monitor program. As for normal temperatures, anything over about 59/60 for a long period of time is a problem (that's the CPU temp by the way).
Yeah above 60 C is when the wierd stuff starts to happern, but unless somehting really bad happened to your cooling systems, I have a hard time believing it would reach over 60 C just surfing the internet.
