    Computer shut off by itself.

    A few weeks ago, I was gone for almost an hour, and my computer tower shut off. I turned it on, and my tabs were still up.

    Should I be worried?

    Last week, my computer shut off while it was on the boot screen.

    My computer didn’t turn off by itself while I was at church the other day.

    And yesterday, I was able to log in before my computer turned off by itself

    I turned my computer on today, and it turned off. I turned it on again, and the light went on, then off again.

    The next time, it stayed on.

    Is my computer dying?

    Will have to agree with the information provided from here…

    Page 1 of 3 - Computer turned off by itself. - posted in Internal Hardware: Last week, I was gone for almost an hour, and my computer tower shut off. I turned it on, the boot screen showed, and my tabs were still up. It did it again this week. Then, the other day, when I was helping my mom get furniture, it fell asleep. When I moved the mouse to wake it up, it made the noise it makes when I shut it off by pressing the power button on the tower and shut off. It turned on again after I press...

        OK, just let me tell them after the next reply.

        I’ve cleaned the inside of my computer, and I went through Event Viewer:

          Computer fell asleep while I was gone yesterday, and again when I had to leave again, and it didn’t turn off by itself, so it’s fixed, maybe.

          Turned on with no problems today.
