Answer» We;; i know the RAM is not the problem because a month ago or so i could run it perfectly. but Warcraft 3 isnt the problem because my computer shuts down when i am on AoL instant messanger /itunes or sometimes even jsut on internetoooo and carbon how could i check if its that my computer overheated?Quote from: Carloz on August 25, 2007, 01:36:45 PM oooo and carbon how could i check if its that my computer overheated? Remove a side panel from the machine and place a small fan with the airflow blowing into the case...if the symptoms go away you have an overheating problem.hmm when u say side panal u mean the back of the computerOr the case...remember i can't see your machine from here...ahh yes my fault i forgot for a second i thought all computers will built same then i rememed more advanced ones PATIO and carbon have both got a good POINT. Overheating will definately cause you're computer to shutdown randomly. However, just out of curiosity, you didn't change your processor voltage through bios setup did you? overclocking if you don't know what you're doing can be HIGHLY dangerous, and can fry you're motherboard, if you're not careful. If your computer is overheating, then i suggest you buy a new fan. Quote However, just out of curiosity, you didn't change your processor voltage through bios setup did you? He has stated his expertise level as novice...i doubt overclocking is the issue. Let's keep it basic til we can sort this mess out. 2 threads and 4 days later and no further along.,,let's find out if it's heat related first and go from there.ok so i guess what i will try is removing back of computer with screw drivers and placing a fan therethe fans were not the problem i just removed the side panel and checked all 3 fans were workingQuote Remove a side panel from the machine and place a small fan with the airflow blowing into the case...if the symptoms go away you have an overheating problem.This should be tested for at least a day.what do u mean by tested as in if it turns off anyway with the fan just turn it back up and try again?Basically open the cover of your computer and let another fan blow at it. That kind of fan we mean is like a tower fan or SOMETHING you use to cool yourself off instead of an air con. Another thing I should point out, just because all 3 fans are working doesn't mean the motherboard/Hard drive/video cards are cooling down from them....imagine it's summer, and you're really hot. you have no aircon. what's the next best thing? A fan. well, the only difference now is, instead of you that's hot, it's the computer. same concept really. JXY If you want to help then help out rather asking question to a 14years old boy. JXY all threads were just confusing. Boy get a fan and place it facing your computer after removing the side cover. Overload your computer by playing the game TOGEHTER with media player for atleast an hour and it shuts down then get back to us for the next level. Bless your pc |
