  1. Computer Abruptly and Randomly Restarting


    Looking at event viewer, I managed to see that before the critical error marking the sudden restart, another error popped up:"Volume C: \Device\HarddiskVolume3 needs to be taken offline to perform a Full Chkdsk. Please run "CHKDSK /F" locally via the command line, or run "REPAIR-VOLUME <drive:>" locally or remotely via PowerShell."I've researched on this error, and so here's what I've tried:- Running chkdsk /f- Running chkdsk /r- Ru

    :)

    Random shut down and restart??

    Computer: Intel (R) Pentium (R) Dual cpu
    E220@2.406hz
    2.42 GHZ, 2.00 GB of RAM
    Windows xp

    Ever since I replaced the fan (with heat sink) the computer has randomly shut down and then restarted, at first during streaming, and now, will shut down and restart anytime. I tried to replace the graphics card to no avail. *Confused Computer Abruptly and Randomly Restarting :confused:*Mad Computer Abruptly and Randomly Restarting :mad:

    One suggestion was to replace the RAM.

    Any suggestions on how to repair my computer?

    random restarts

    Hi Lili,

    Hardware failure or system instability can cause the computer to
    randomly restarts. As our initial troubleshooting step, we suggest you to run the Power troubleshooter on your computer and check if it fixes the issue. Here are the steps:

    • Press Windows key.
    • Type Troubleshoot.
    • Under Find and fix other problems look for
      Power.
    • Then Run the troubleshooter.

    Update us with the outcome and if you need further assistance.
