Cupe Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Ok, these are the symptoms:Turn the PCIt loads to desktop (most times)Then it logs off the user (even though it's not setup to have users)Then restartsDoes this on a loop.Got it cleaned out, got rid of all the dust, let it cool down for a whileNext turn on it ran for about 3 minutes, then the above happened againThoughts?I don't have physical access to the computer so I can't fuck with itI just need ideas of why this is happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Probably heat issues. Once the sensors reach a certain temp is shuts computer down. maybe cpu fan/heatsink is faultyor still a virus potentially Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupe Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 I duno why all of a sudden after a billion years the heatsink would just fuck upIf I can at least reset bios to default we'll see if it's overclocking relatedor boot in safe mode and check evntvwr.msc or whatever it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 But you said it never had users set up? Enter in safe mode and disabled users n see if that does anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupe Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 It loads up to safe mode and doesn't do the restart thing so that's one good thingReally not sure what could be causing this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
