    PC shutdown Automatically, PSU or what ?
    « on: April 23, 2018, 04:52:44 AM »
    Hello everyone, I'm new here, so the last few days my computer was shutting down itself every time Memory or CPU be in 100 degrees, As well as when I place a CD/DVD into the computer case, PC also shutdown, then restart, I don't know if PSU (Power Supply) is the cause or not!

    Any help will be appreciated, Thanks!

      Hi Senor,

      Could  you give us the computer make and model or details of the parts.
      Certainly the computer restarting when you put a CD into the drive points to a power supply problem.
      Is the whole computer case hot or only the RAM and CPU ?
      If the case is really warm then it could be the power supply fan has failed.

        manufacturer: MSI
        MOBO:MSI H67MA-E35
        CPU: Intel pentium g630 2.70 2 cores
        RAM:4GB DDR3

        I think only RAM n CPU are hot

          Hi
          You don't say what power supply you are using. Also has anyone been over clocking the computer? If it helps you can post images and screen shots here. If this has just happened without there being any changes it seems odd. It seems from the CPU the system could be 5 to 7 years old which if the power supply is lower end could point to a failing power supply.
          Could you supply details of the Power Supply please.

          It could also be a heat issue...DLoad install and run Speedfan...post temps for at idle and under load.

            Actually I overclocked my computer because of Blue Stacks if you know it, And I don't really know what is my Power Supply

              Hi
              If you need to over clock a computer to run certain software , perhaps now is the time to get a replacement computer more suitable for the task.
              I would be interested in seeing a Speccy report https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy
              Go file, publish report and copy link here for review.

                BlueStacks says nowhere you need to OC...the issue is your PC does not meet the requirements and you're trying to squeeze more out of what you have...

                  OC = overclocking...are you doing that ? ?

                  Virtualisation is a feature of the CPU/system...
                  It would need to be enabled in the BIOS to load BlueStacks.

                    Nah, I'm so stupid, I'm not doing OC anymore, I'm enabling virtualization, Btw Virtualization can't shutdown pc ?

                    No...glad you cleared this up.

                    That being said your system requorements are at the lower end of what BlueStacks asks for...
