I have been having an issue with my computer shutting down for some time now. It happens randomly and when i go and restart the computer it will start up with the fan running wide open and shut down. I can keep restarting 5 or 6 times and it will eventually boot up just fine and work for several day before it acts up again. I have done the typical trouble shooting, taking one component out at a time and restarting. I was positive it was the MOBO because when i took it out the heatsink on one of the bridges was hard as a rock and fell in the floor. So i decided to replace the MOBO and processor. It is till doing the same exact thing. I am at the end of my rope with this computer. Please help.
