Well, maybe a week or two ago I came into the computer room and the computer was turned off, which was odd because I don't usually turn it off. Figured the power went out or something.
Anyway, the computer booted up with the "do you want to start in safe mode, safe mode with networking, etc." screen, and I just started the normal boot mode.
Computer loaded up alraight. Then maybe 10 minutes after fully booting up, the computer shut off. No BSOD that i noticed. Nothing in the event viewer when I rebooted gave me any idea of what happened. But the computer kept doing it. The computer turns off randomly. Sometimes several minutes after being fully booted, sometimes it crashes during the booting up screen-- the "loading windows screen".
I'm totally lost. The computer is not overheating--I know that-- not hot at all and I have programs to monitor temps. The computer does not appear to be "power starved", at least not according to my volatage monitoring.
So, for some reason the computer does NOT shut off when running in safe mode-- pure safe mode or safe mode with networking, either seem to work fine. This made me suspect that I had a driver problem with my vid card, so I totally reinstalled new drivers. The computer, being booted in normal mode, worked fine for several hours and I figured "oh ya, I totally figured it out!", then BOOM it shut off. Again, no BSOD, no overheating issue. Getting really pissed off at this point. I also have like 2-3 virus scanners, and havent come up with anything.
