I need your advice to fix up the power supply system of my desktop PC. I was enjoying a game and suddenly everything hangs up and it shuts down. After then it is happening everyday and without showing any kind of message or warning power supply stops. If I try to restart the PC immediately after shutting down, power shows up for couple of seconds and it stops again. I need to wait at least 15-20 minutes to resume the normal service. I am not getting any kind of weird sound or beep from the power supply. What do you think? Please give me a reply.

In my thinking it is a purely hardware problem and not a software problem, now why it happens and where your problem is located we will see that. Let’s start with your power cables you have to check them it they are causing some problems then replace them or repair them. After this now check you power supply FAN is it working properly, because this problem often comes when fan is not working properly it makes the system hot and thus cause for a shutdown so see it on your first importance. Also check that your power supply is rust free and it has no dust in it.

After that also check your Motherboard, is it free of errors and is perfectly working. If you are not a hardware expert then you can go to your near shop for PC's and ask him to do that.

Power supply contains a lot of such parts that requires to not be heated up and a normal temperate is required for them to work properly. May be one of these parts are causing problem and not working properly. So if your can check them check them all.

Hope you will like my views.

If that’s what’s happening then I think the problem is not with the power supply but with the processor. With power supply, the only problem you will get is technical and you won’t be able to start the computer. In this case, you need to replace the power supply with a new one or bring it to a computer repair shop and get it serviced.

They will either repair the power supply or replace it. But since you were still able to start the computer after a few minutes, the problem might be with the processor overheating. When the processor overheats, the CPU will shut down immediately then when you try to start it again, it will just turn off again.

You can verify if the problem is overheating by checking the information in the BIOS the next time you start the computer. The POST screen should display a message saying the previous shut down was caused by thermal problem. To avoid overheating, replace the processor cooling fan.
