My PC keeps shutting down randomly
When it shuts down it doesn't just shut down like the power has been unplugged, it turns off as though i have pressed shut down
Specs:
AMD Athlon II 640
4gb RAM (2x2gb)
ATI Radeon HD 4830 512mb
powered by
Corsair CX430 (modular)
It has worked fine for 5 months. I haven't done any overclocking.
Thanks in advance

well i have a windows 7 and got it this christmas ,and it started shutting off Can someone explain how i can fix this ? i know its not overheating tho its not hot & the fan is actually coldDo you by any chance have a PS/2 mouse (Non-USB)? Well, if you do try replace it with a USB one to see if stat works.
Check that first, then check for other problems like RAM problems, viruses.
To check for RAM, use MemTest, and obviously run a virus scan for viruses.
Give that a go
Hi I am having this problem, I have just installed win 7 and it keeps powering off without warning. Temps are fine, have tried different memory. I have a ps/2 keyboard, can you explain why this shuts down the computer? I can't seem to find much information about this issue elsewhere. I just want to know before I buy a new keyboard. thanks
I really don't know or understand why it does this. Buy a cheap USB one or borrow one for a whilst. There is a chance it will stop shutting down.
