Diagnosing Random Shut off problem
Last response: in Systems
Hi All,
I am having random power shut off issues with my homebuilt computer. For some unknown reason when I am surfing the internet or working on something on my computer, I find it just turning off suddenly. No explanation of why and how it happened.
The worst part is that there is no diagnostic that I am aware of that explains why it occurs. As well, I don't understand how to reproduce it because its so random.
SOooo....I was wondering does anyone out there might know of a cool program or something of the like that might be able to continuously monitor my system so that maybe some sort of diagnostic can be produced in which I can perhaps peruse to figure out whats causing these random shut offs?
Other ideas I have been having is something is faulty in my system but I don't know how to determine this, perhaps someone smarter than me might be able to point me in the right direction.
In any case, I'm open to all suggestions and I appreciate anyone's input in advance.
THANKS!!
