Why does my computer turn off?

You can try these few steps yourself, before seeking for technical assistance.

1. First verify the proper connection of the power cable & ROM.
2. Scan the system for virus and other malware attacks.
3. Also try resetting BIOS settings to default.
4. Try connecting another monitor if available. If the issue persists, there can be a problem in power, system board or display.
5. If the other monitor did not have the issue, there may be a problem with the capacitors. So, try adjusting the brightness to the minimum level possible. If this also brings no result, check if the capacitors are having bulging tops instead of being flat where you would have to go for a replacement.
6. Further you can try replacing the inverter of the monitor.

Best Regards!

Why does my computer turn off?

If your computer shuts down randomly, you need to check the cooling system of your CPU. The most likely cause is the cooling fan on top of the processor. This is the main component that prevents the processor from overheating. If this component fails to operate on its optimum performance like it became suddenly slow, it will no longer be able to maintain the processor’s temperature.

If the temperature rises to its peak, the processor will overheat causing the system to shut down immediately. The solution is to replace the cooling fan with a new one. When buying a cooling fan for the processor, it is always paired with a heat sink. Also, you need to check the compatibility of the cooling fan if your processor is supported.

Another factor to check is the size of the cooling fan particularly the height. You need to check if it’ll fit in your CPU. If you have no idea how to check these things, just bring your CPU to the computer store and let them check which cooling fan is compatible with your unit.
