Question Pc shut off

[Chlonovo]

So a few nights ago I was watching BBC iplayer on my pc I had no problems earlier on in the night and it randomly shut off I left it over night but no joy the next day when turning back on. Could this be the power supply or something to do with the motherboard?

Do you have a gpu or are you using the integrated graphics?

I haven't bought a gpu for it so assuming I'm using the integrated graphics

It’s a pretty poor quality psu (tier D) so while integrated graphics is very light load there is a possibility it has died. As you would need a better psu for running any gpu anyway I would start by swapping in a new psu.

It’s ok, decent enough for a mid range gpu.

If changing the psu fails is there anything else it could be ?

Motherboard is probably the next most likely. You could try clearing CMOS first, free to try but unlikely the cause. On the less likely list is a failed cpu or RAM.
