I dont know what is the problem. My pc is old. HP Sandy Bridge 1497 with i3-2100. 4gb ram and 1gb nvidia geforce 210 but the problem just suddenly occured so i want to know if there is just one or two parts i could jsut change instaed of buying a new one coz im really a peasant LOL. I noticed that whenever i'd rest my pc longer, the longer run time it would take before my pc crashes
by the time you have read this my pc would have probably crashed. plz help asap

Hi there James_67,

Your system is clearly overheating. You can check that out with some software tool as well.

You need to clean the dust out of it. You can consider getting a cooling pad as well.

I checked my pc temperature using speccy before my pc crashes. my gpu temp is moving around 43deg celcius , my cpu cores are just around 33deg celcius, i have removed my side panel long ago and i mostly use it in an airconditioned room. does taht still count as a overheating? Thanks btw I'll consider the dust problem although the last time I had it cleaned was 3 weeks ago. Are there more things that could have possibly caused this?

 
The temps look fine.
You can do some stress testing. In case your system passes, you can doublecheck all the cables.
Another thing you can test is your PSU. Unfortunately, the best way to do so is to just borrow one from somebody and install it on your system. There are some software tools that can do that as well.

Cheers,

I cleaned my heatsink (which wasn't cleaned by the shop i went to have it cleaned) and my pc have not crashed since then and i wish it wont. The dusts were the problem I guess. Thank you very much and God bless
