    does anyone here know what to do if your pc just turns off without any notice and restarts itself without giving you any errors. this happens approximetely about a minute after I start it up or starts itself up after the shutdown. it doesnt matter what i do during this minute it will turn off anyway even if i dont login.

    this is what it says in the bios about the temperature
    cpu temperature 53C/125F
    cpu fan speed 4687rmp
    system fan speed 2033
    one thing that Ive noticed is that it doesnt turn off when im in bios only in windows it also turns off if i dont type in my password after the same amount of time.

    do you guys think its a virus

    I had this same problem where as soon as I booted up my computer it would turn off. It would do this every time I started it up. Mine was cause by a virus I got when connecting to a network in an Airport (unsecured network) once I system restored it was fixed.
    Solution: Use System restore....
