Dear All,

I have a problem with My PC these days; it is shutting down every 2 to 3 minuets
I have tried some of the virus program to fix the problem with no avail. Please need your assistance on the matter.

Thanks

The first thing you needto work out is if it is a software or hardware problem.
Try booting up in safe mode, press the F8 key on boot up and select safe mode, if it doesn't shut down then it's probably a driver problem, you can either update the drivers or use system restore to restore your PC to an earlier condition.
Please post back with more details regarding your PC, make/model, Operating System etc.

Could well be hardware related - failing power supply, memory chip gone bad etc.

check first your curent cpu temparture in the bios setup,maye you have to replace the cooler,when dirt is inside,then cooling is not enough,and pc shout down ,for secure reasons,before your cpu will burn up!

In a nutshell there is insufficient information given to be able to make a diagnosis, we could all guess different possibilities all of which may be valid but that will not help you as we could be here for weeks with all the permutations....more information required

Dear All

Thank you very much for your valuable information, my pc was shutting down very quickly sometimes even before windows start-up, so I guessed it is a cooler problem as Mr. Turok mentioned and I cleaned it and now it is working fine. Thanks again for your time and help.

Regards
Abu-Omar
