Right click my computer.
Properties>Advanced>Startup and Recovery.
Until automatic restart.
Wait for it to happen again. Write down error code and stop error.
Also, run a scan with HijackThis! and C+P the log into HijackThis.de.

| Start your computer in safe mode and run several virus checks with Spybot and Hijackthis.

What Blank said Hijack this! Is a pretty good virus scanner which is fast and gets everything (got rid of my trojan down loader) just gotta install it and run it in Safe Mode F8 when it's starts up if you don't know how....
Hope I helped ^_^

| My first guess with BSOD's is memory problems, (RAM). Take them out, remove some dust etc and put them back in.

It is because of failed hardware. If you installed some new hardware try uninstalling it if that dosent work there is always Google.

It's either your ram or one of your cards (graphics, sound etc.) when one of your cards fail the port on the mainboard causes the computer to shut down. Does Windows or whatever OS you have shutdown with its shutting down process or does it just turn off instantly?

You can also use those dust cleaning sprays for computers.

i forgot to check this.. sorry for old thread bump
but my computer hasn't turned off abruptly for a week..
and i think it is the hardware failure because everytime i go back on it tells me the computer went to a blue screen to prevent something
and speaks of hardware failure..
but i never installed anything new.. from what i know
maybe my mom did.. iono
thanks for the replies
@~NJ what does OS mean?
it just turns off and then reboots

OS means Operating Systen (Leapord, Windows XP, Etc..)
Yeah, it was definitely a hardware issue.
I would suggest opening your computer and just pressing down on everything to make sure it is "Clicking" in.

Well, hardware does fail over time.
It might be overheating [maybe?]. Clean out your computer if you don't.
If not, it is probably a faulty memory sector in your ram sticks like Safko said.
I want to guess faulty GPU drivers. Have you updated them lately?

So I suggest open it up, recheck all the cables, press everything down, and dust it. Buy an airspray or something.
