Hi guys,
I'd really appreciate some thoughts on what could be wrong with my PC.
A few months ago now I upgraded to an i7 from an i5, which meant replacing the motherboard and RAM as well.
Everything seemed to work fine, but then I noticed my PC will just turn itself off and boot up again randomly.
It happens at random times and it doesn't seem to be related to the load as it has happened while gaming and also just idle with nothing open.
To me this seems like a power delivery problem, like something is shorting?
I thought my old power supply perhaps wasn't enough, so upgraded to a bronze 1000W, which didn't help.
The event viewer shows a critical error, but has no specific info.
Critical, Kernel-Power, ID 41, task category (63).
I'm not really sure what to try to fix the issue, does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Ayjay
