From today morning my Windows 11 PC randomly turning off.

PC was working properly till last night.

No new hardware changes. In software I installed Davinchi Resolve coupe of days ago but my PC was working properly till last night.

What could be the issue?

PC Specifications

  1. Ryzen 3200G
  2. A320 SH Rev. 2 Motherboard
  3. Samsung 980 NVMe SSD
  4. 16 G.B. DDR4 RAM
  5. Corsair 850-Watt Power Supply
 
It could be quite a few things.
Faulty ram, cpu temps, mobo problem, faulty windows update, faulty drivers (gpu etc.), glitchy Power Supply
Two things you could do to narrow it down without too much work to start with is..
- run a file system check for corrupt windows files using SFC and DISM.
- You could boot it up in safe mode and leave it running for a period of time to see if it turns off.
Process of elimination.....also run a memtest on the ram to check for errors. That gives you some starters to work with. Cheers.

My PC when running Windows 11 PC turn off suddenly, especially when I'm on web browser both on Google Chrome and Firefox.
If I boot Windows 11 and just leave it the PC doesn't turn off.
When I'm running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with Firefox, I don't face the issue.
I re-seated my M.2 drive where Windows 11 is installed.
