How do I resolve random computer shutdowns?
Random shutdowns could be due to overheating, power supply issues, or system errors.
Random shutdowns are often triggered by overheating or a failing power supply. Start by checking the temperatures using a system monitoring tool; if the CPU or GPU is overheating, your computer might be shutting down to prevent damage. Clean out any dust and ensure fans are operational. Inconsistent power from a faulty power supply can also cause shutdowns; testing with a different power source or replacing the supply may resolve this. On Windows, check Event Viewer for critical errors, as software or driver issues may also cause unexpected shutdowns. Updating drivers and BIOS can sometimes fix compatibility issues that lead to shutdowns.
