Hi all.
I'm having problems with my setup and I really hope someone can help.
I've recently moved house and had the pc setup and working fine so I
don't think it got knocked around in the move as I was able to watch a few
hours worth of video and edit some photos.
But when I switch it on recently, it will be fine for about 15mins or so
then I hear a click (which sounds more like a clunk) which will make my
screen go blank then I see my pc booting up again. The 'clunk' reminds me of
when I go to turn my pc off through start menu and the power is finally
turned off (by the system).
I tried to do a reinstallation of windows but it then decided to do the same
through the installation.
I have a spare hard drive kicking around somewhere and was going to try
the installation on it and see that it's not the HD that's in it now.
Specs:
1.4Ghz AMD Athlon
160GB HD
640GB Ram
DVD+RW drive
CD-RW drive
Has anyone ever came across this problem before?
The house I've moved to was built in the 1940's so I was wondering could
there be a fault in the electricity supply somewhere? Though nothing else
ever turns itself off.
If it is a hardware problem, is there a way to pinpoint exactly what it is?
Many many thanks.
