I built myself a new computer a little less than a year ago and I am experiencing the following problem:
It will randomly shut off by itself, with no warning. Its a complete power shut down.
AMD CPU
DFI LAN-Party board
Foxconn nVidia 256mb video
I cant for the life of me figure it out. It was on non-stop for three days without a signle problem. Then I shut it down for a night, and the next morning I try to turn it on and it would load windows, let me log on, and then shut down. sometimes it would only stay on for a minute, sometimes it would stay on for 20 minutes.
Ive cleaned all of the dust out of the fan parts/heatsinks for the RAM, video, and cpu. I even took the heatsink off of the the cpu, cleaned the grease off, and re-applyed it.
I set my bios to disable any of the heat warnings/automatic shut down.
I cant for the life of me figure out whats going on.
its been running this exact set-up, error free, no heat problems for a little under a year.
Thanks
