    unusal behaviour - windows or PC?


    Anyone come across this unusal behaviour of my PC? It seems to at random turn off at the base unit; I have to unplug it at the back and then plug it

    Could this be Windows 10 problem or the PC?

    It is an Intel i5
    1tb hard drive
    6GB Ram
    Windows 10 Pro
    make is a Fujitsu Q9000

    No viruses or malware have been found. Use Avast - also ran Malwarebytes said Linked In App for Chrome virus but removed that and Chrome, problem still persists.

    Windows 10 clock also goes out of sync 5 minutes or so.

    If I go away for hour or so watch TV on big TV it does not go off.

    Thanks

    :)

    Taskbar keeps on showing up while watching in full screen mode.

    This happens to me too. It's not just with video - my main problem is with RDP client - it's unusable in this state, as I can't see start bar of the machine I'm connected to. I only saw this behaviour with rdp client after the latest big update, don't recall
    this before with rdp - but the video problem definitely started before that.

    I only can see this behaviour with the PC connected to tv, on my laptop this behaviour doesn't bug out.

    Problem with massive battery drain on nokia lumia 620

    I found the problem being in... to many apps installed. Just as I removed many unused ones the battery came back to its normal behaviour. Try unistalling rarely used apps and see if it works. It looks like to be some kind of bug in WP8 on Lumia 620 (maybe
    other too).

    Those are most certainly PC (machine/HW) problems. Could be overheating so you should check for that. Comments about clock problem make me thing that CMOS battery may gone flat so it may have to be replaced.

    I used to be a hardware tech and saw low CMOS batteries cause all sorts of weird issues. Won't do any harm to replace it.

    Thanks. CMOS battery has been ordered - will advise if problem still persists after install. However the base unit still turned off by itself even doing the scannow in safe mode

    the engineer fixed it

    a) no thermal paste was found on heat sink
    b) one of the RAM sticks was having the problem as well

    Thanks to all who suggested

    Don't have full details yet as need to pick machine up but engineer has taken out the 2GB RAM that came with it as it originally came with 4GB Ram when machine was from seller, think seller put 2GB RAM in - he said machine is working fine with 4GB RAM but my father may have a spare DDR3 2GB RAM - quick turn around for fix. Soon as I find out will let you know.

    For RAM modules/sticks please make sure the SKU match to reduce any mismatch problems.
