Hey all,
Recently I started to encounter an issue with my computer. While playing games (usually) the computer will shutdown without warning. Up until today, it would turn back on right away. Today, however, the computer would not post after shutting down and was shortly proceeded by two quick beeps. After several minutes, the computer did come back on, posted normally, and windows functioned as though nothing happened. No "you shut down your computer improperly" or equivalent error message is every displayed. The computer doesn't seem to be overheating and is cool to the touch. Looking inside, all fans seem to be functioning. There doesn't appear to be a rhyme or reason to the shutdowns. They could happen as often as once every 10 minutes or not at all for days. I'll post specs below and any advice would be greatly appreciated. The computer is under a year old and up until recently was working just fine.
