    Hi guys, Random one, really hoping someone out their can help,

    my pc has been running fine all day, been on division all day, turned pc off went to get a take away, Came back and now when playing games or watching tv, it random Turns off *as in power loss* then turns back on and says windows did not shut down correctly,

    I've been keeping an eye on temps and they are around 30-40 ish depending on the game, I've even turned on the Graphics card fan incase its a temp issue.

    Any suggestions, Diags i can run, ideally without stripping the entire pc down.


    Seams really odd its worked fine all day the the last hour started to do this. Its like someone has unplugged it and plugged it back in. Rather annoying.


    Really hope someone can help

    Rich


    *ps the last thing i did prior to this issue was install GWX control panel to get rid of the windows 10 issue.

    Have a look in Event Viewer under Windows Logs > System. There 'maybe' something in there.
    Else try running memtest.

    Critical's would be the one to look at, errors are not that significant

    That just indicates that there has been a crash and the computer has booted up again.

    What were the HDD errors?
