This is not good... HELP!

[angelosathan]

I don't know why or the reason that caused my problem. My PC restarts everytime I try to run a programm and I mean anything even notepad! I am not infected from a virus .
If anyone out there knows how to solve this problem I would appreciate his help.
...a desperate user...:(

[wilbo]

i dont actually own a computer so im clueless about what virus you might have ask someone to look it up for u sorry i cant be of more help:(

[BlackXII]

Kinda like wat happens to me, cept it only shuts down when i run games/ 3D environments. im pretty positive my ram is F@#$%^ up....and that might be your problem. (could Possibly be my vid card)

[ektorgreat]

The solution of your problem is to try a better power supply maybe 400watts because 3d games drain much power from your system becasue of your grap. card if the problem remain then your mothrboard is meesed up or try doing a format of your hard drive

omfg dude are u serious it might not be his power supply it could just be somthing simple like it is over heating... he said it was even shutting down wile in notpad... NOT PAD ISNT 3D DUDE

Maybe it's overheating. Pull it out from the wall, check the fan hole. You might even want to pop the cover and carefully blow it out, a lot of dust bunnies can gather in there.

How is u so sure it’s not a virus? Maybe ur antivirus isn’t updated enough to find it. Just sounds like too consistent to overheat and if it’s not a virus it’s definitely a software problem

[Lone_Wolf]

Well it most certainly looks like a case of overheating or even a busted
mobo. May be u shud get it checked by a technician.

Are you writing this off the computer that keeps on shutting down??? It really sounds like a virus. I have alot of expirence with viruses and this sounds like one ;)

There is a new virus out there that restarts your computer over and over again. It is fairly new and if you haven't updated your software in a while it could be there easily ;) I don't think this is the virus you have if you do have one :)

hey dude.. maybe your pc is running low of resources. try this out

1. try to upgrade your memory
2. how many disk space available? try to use disk clean up.
3. if possible uninstall all unneccesary programs
4. this is the worse thing... your computer might have been infected with a trojan virus - this is a spyware that resides in the register.
5. try to scan it with spyware doctor - this will help


hope this helps

You might have a corrupted system file like shell.dll or something that every program needs to run. Try using your windows CD to repair, see if that works.

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]Well, gee that sucks.. cause if you do have a virus you can't even open an anti virus program..maybe someone who knows something about computers could help or something but other than that..well haha, good luck.COLOR]

Damn colour..

same thing happened to me last week its the motherboard... better turn ur pc off and get a new motherboard or it just might screw up the whole system.

[Scott croft]

Or you could smash the sh#t out of your pc. Well actually you could play a really really hard game say .... errrmm Star wars Episode 3 on really hard on the hardest level then that'll make you annoyed then you can take your anger out on the pc.

how old is your computer....it may be a failing RAM modual...pretty cheap to fix or it could be a windows error try running adaware for spyware scan (free)....do a full anti virus scan (boot time if able)....then run a reg cleaner to find registry errors.............and if all else fails REINSTALL WINDOWS
