  1. PC will not shut down, just restarts


    Hello!I have recently upgraded my pc to an SSD drive.Since then it will not shut down, I click the shutdown button and get the shutdown screen.Then the PC switches off and immediately restarts.I have tried the usual culprits, such as disabling all start-up items that are not Microsoft, but the problem persists.I have run SFC /Scannow and it finds no errors.There is also no "Fast Startup" button in the power section.I'm running Windows 10 Home Ver: 21H1 build: 19043.1706 Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4170.0.I can force it to shut down by using the power button on the case.Any ideas,

    :)

    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 PC will not shut down, just restarts :confused:*Mad PC will not shut down, just restarts :mad:

    One suggestion was to replace the RAM.

    Any suggestions on how to repair my computer?

  3. My pc takes for ever to shut down when i restart

    Suggest cleaning up your startup list .There may be many services / Apps you can remove on startup which is not needed on boot or during shutdown.
    Before you shutdown the Pc check what is running in Task Manager as a program or service in not killing the process on shutdown

    Would suggest cleaning up running apps and services -Autoruns, StartupMonitor,HighjackThis,
    Malware Scan - Malwarebytes,ADWcleaner, Combofix

    Automated Restart of Windows 10 PC

    Hello,

    If Windows suddenly restarts without warning, or restarts when you try to shut it down, it might be caused by one of several issues. An outdated driver and software conflict are some of the possible reasons. Having said that, we suggest performing
    the following steps:

    Step 1: Disabling the automatic restart option to view error messages.

    Many hardware driver or operating system errors will cause the computer to display a specific error message before stopping the operation or shutting down the computer. However, if the Automatically restart option
    is enabled, an error message might not be displayed despite an error taking place. Disable this option to allow the computer to display the error message.
    Follow these steps to disable the Automatically restart option:


    • In Windows, search for and open View advanced system settings.

    • Click Settings in the Startup and Recovery section.
    • Remove the check mark next to Automatically restart under System Failure, then click OK.
    • Restart the computer.

    Step 2: Checking for failed hardware.

    Hardware problems can cause the computer to restart unexpectedly.

    Let us know if that worked out for you.
