Hi everybody,

I think I have a PSU problem, but not sure! The PC is shutting down at 1 minute when windows started. First I thought it was overheating, but now I'm not sure. Reading stuff on voltages made me wonder and since I'm truly a noob...
Pc is running at the moment, i disabled the S.M.A.R.T fan function in BIOS. RPM are really loud now, but it works... for now.

Some info:

I truly have no clue what's going on. Maybe you could help.
Thanks in advance

That's a load of. But then why does it shut down? is it a thermal shut down?
With the SMART fan function disabled it is running ok for now. Is the SMART function broken??
 
The +5 volt reading is really high (out of tolerance). Use a DMM to measure between the black and red wires on one of the drive molex power connectors.

In fact, you can check all the voltages from the back of the power plug. Measure between the colored wires and either chassis ground or the black wires. Yellow wires should be 12 volts. Red wires: +5 volts, orange wires: +3.3 volts, blue wire : -12 volts, violet wire: 5 volts always on. Tolerances are +/- 5% except for the -12 volts which is +/- 10%.
