• My computer shuts down without asking for confirmation. Any solution to this problem?

  I keep my Dell Lap Top on most of the day. Until 3 weeks ago, I never had this problem. The computer turns off spontaneously at random times during the day.  Any solution to this problem?

  The most common cause to stop suddenly a computer is an overheating problem.  Normally, the fan runs faster the CPU heats up.  If you have noticed that your fan runs fast most of the time, that would be your first clue.  Also, if the fan is not spinning, this can also cause overheating. If the fan runs, the most common cause of overheating is an accumulation of dust inside the computer.  You can download the following freeware program which should indicate how hot your CPU becomes:

  Core Temp: <> http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/ >

  If it detects overheating, try blowing compressed air into the vents to loosen and remove dust.

  Suddenly a second cause is problems with the RAM chips in your computer.  Try to run a test on your RAM memory.  Keep in mind that most of the tester memory programs also stress on the CPU, so if overheating is a problem, a RAM test could lead to a stop of overheating as well.

• Computer shuts down randomly without error message

  My computer shuts down randomly without notice.  I don't get blue screens, etc.  I have a Gateway desktop computer using Vista Home Premium 64-bit, Service Pack 2.  I tried to go to the event viewer, but does not know what it means.  I have attached the event below.  My computer turns off sometimes in 10 minutes, 2 minutes or 2 hours.  It does not matter.

  I realized what it was.  I normally go through, clean the fans and inside on a regular basis.  The fan that is attached to the Central Unit worked.  However, between the processor and the Fan Heatsink was extremely dirty.  It was packed with dirt.  To see this, you need to remove the fan.  He carefully cleaned, and all is well.

  Thanks for the info indicating that windows will usually give you an exception error, and it is probably a hardware problem, dirty, etc.  It's exactly what it was.  I just could not see the dirt without removing the fan.

• My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games.

  My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games. Now it is not always the case, just sometimes. The other day I was playing Sims 3 all day, literally, with the graphics settings maxed out and had no problem. The next day, he would crash as soon as it finished loading, even with the graphics settings at the bottom. Today, it was working fine this morning and now it crashes again. I had the same problem on and off with other games as well, Halo 2, Kings Bounty, UT 3. Here is my system:

  OS - Vista Ultimate 32 bit
  Processor: Core 2 Quad Q9400 @ 2 .66GHz
  RAM - 4 x 1 GB PC6400 DDR2/800
  MB - MSI P7N SLI - FI
  HARD drive - 150 GB x 2 (Raid 0) Raptor 10 k RPM
  PSU - 1000 watts
  GPU - NVidia GeForce 9800GT 1 GB (x 2 in SLI)

  And the error I get from Event Viewer:

  Filter event with the query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Processor' AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace '//./root/CIMV2' because of error 0 x 80041003.» Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is resolved.

  I got the error almost everyday since I got the computer, about 10 months ago, but it only blocks the computer if I play a game. I tried the 'fix' that removes the WMI event viewer 10 error, but everything done was make sure the error is not logged. I also tried another fix I found me delete the files in the repository, but that no longer works. I also run scans of complete system of virus/malware Spybot Search & Destroy and AVG 8 and verified the updated driver for my hardware. I also ran diagnostic tool memory. Who has good/clean/current. Can it be fixed or what I have to reinstall the OS?

  Hi JerHekSr,

  Thank you for using answers Forum.

  The first thing that comes to mind would be to check the motherboard manufacturer for an update of the firmware/BIOS.

  The error message mentions "loadpercentage > 99' which looks like you are running may at maximum load of the CPU while the game and that is the cause of the crash. You could try a clean boot to prevent the using CPU resources while you play to see if it makes a difference of strtup programs.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts. This article describes how to solve problems in Windows Vista by performing a clean boot. This article also describes how to start the Windows Installer service and how to reset the computer so that it starts as usual.

  Note When you perform a clean boot, you may temporarily lose some functionality. When you start the computer as usual, the function returns. However, you may receive the error message, or you can experience the original behavior.

  If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.

  a. log in the computer using an account with administrator rights.

  b. click Start collapse this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.

  The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .

  c. under the general tab, click Selective startup , and then clear the Load Startup items check box. (The box use the Boot file is not available.)

  d. on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft services check box and then click on disable all .

  Note Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.

  e. click OK , and then click restart .

  Step 2: Enable half the services

  a. follow steps 1a and 1B to start the System Configuration utility.

  b. click on the Services tab and then click to select the hide all Microsoft services check box.

  c. Click to select half of the check boxes in the Service list.

  d. click OK and then click restart .

  Step 3: Determine whether the problem returns

  If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have initially enabled in the Service list.

  If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the Service list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

  If only one service is selected in the list of services , and you the problem persists, the service selected the cause of the problem. Go to step 6. If no service is causing this problem, go to step 4.

  Step 4: Enable half of the startup items

  a. perform a clean boot by repeating step 1.

  b. click on the Startup tab and then click to select half of the check boxes in the startup item list.

  c. click OK , and then click restart .

  Step 5: Determine whether the problem returns

  If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have originally selected in the startup item list.

  If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the startup item list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

  If only one startup item is selected in the startup item list, and you still experience the problem, start selected in the list element is the service that is causing the problem. Go to step 6.

  If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely the cause of the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the hide all Microsoft services check box in each step.

  Step 6: Resolve the problem

  After you determine the startup item or the service that is causing the problem, contact the manufacturer of the program to determine if the problem can be solved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click to clear the check box of the element of the problem.

  Step 7: Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  Click on start to reduce this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.

  The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .

  On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK .

  When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart .

• Satellite M70-193 is shut down without reason

  Hello

  I bought M70 - 193 in September 2006. There is no problem up to now. Since last week I have this weird problem, my laptop is shut down without any reason.

  At first, he was shut down when I played in the game. But today, it shuts down every time. I tried to do something, and everything I've done is that there is a connect Toshiba power saver: an error code 0 x 0.

  Someone help me, please

  Hello

  In my opinion your laptop must certainly have reason to turn off. According to the description of your problem my first property thereon is overheating. No one can say with certainty what is happening with your laptop here in the forum, but if you use your laptop in an intensive way, it is possible that the fan in the lower draw more than dust and now the dust blocks, cooling system. If you use your laptop on your lap cooling fan is blocked and material cannot be cooled properly.

  Usually when the material temperature is too high, laptop turns off simply without any warning. Initially, try putting the laptop to the upper post (four books) to be sure that your laptop can take a deep breath and just see if laptop will run a bit more as before.

  Anyway, it is not a solution and I think you should clean up your beautiful Satellite M70. Standby power is another issue and we can discuss it later. ;)
