PC shuts down and restarts for no reason

Northernlady, on Wednesday 23 July 2008 à 13:38:22
Hello,

I have a HP Media Center Pavillion M8000N computer, running Windows Vista 64 - 5200+ processor - purchased in Sept 07. Last week it started shutting down and restarting for no apparent reason. Checking for solutions has not helped at all. Can anyone help?
Thank you
Configuration: Windows Vista

well... maybe if u formatted your hard disk and reinstalled your operation system it will fix... or on the worst case, u may have a case of bad capacitors :(

This actually could be one or more of many problems, but if it is restarting on it's own it could be just a simple video card or a ram stick going bad. vacuum out the insides, pull your cpu to make sure there is paste on the back of it. If your capacitors are swollen (the barrel shaped metal things on the motherboard) and the marks are split, your motherboard is gone. After all of these things, try a different power supply this also could be the problem.
