(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My PC has not been working properly for about 7 months and i want to fix it. the problem is that the PC loads up but when i log on, it turns off/restart. i reinstalled the OS again and it lets me reinstall it which takes around 40 mins. my PC doesnt normally last 5 mins. :( after the OS boots again i reinstall everything again which took around 10 minutes and then it suddenly switches off so im wondering if it a hardware problem or something? i could make a video for you guys for more detailed info :y:

I guess the video wouldn't hurt too much. But I'm sorry to say that it may be a hardware problem. Could be a faulty part of the motherboard, a faulty part of the RAM.

This is just a guess:
If you can, try going into the Bios and turning off automatic restart on failure or something.

agreed. you could possibly even have both problems. like the other guy said, you could possibly have a faulty motherboard. I'm not a computer genius, but just trying to help

Well windows 7 need min of 2gb ram, My other PC turned off after about 10 mins because of the ram, That might be why ( that's if you have Win7 )

f you want to run Windows 7 on your PC, here's what it takes:

1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor

1 gigabyte (GB) RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)

16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver


2GB for x64 that's why :lol:
We are both right then.
