| Sep 24, 2013 at 23:55 | comment | added | Majed | i just removed the cooler and cleeaned all the pile of dust installed core temp to look at the cpu temperature and the computer didn't shutdown even though i loaded the cpu with raring files. so the answer seems ram (memory) can't cause the system to shutdown without the blue screen of death. | |
| Sep 24, 2013 at 23:54 | comment | added | Majed | it turns out the was a kernel 41 error in the critical event log. i bought the propaganda that it is a power supply problem and spent 50$ for a new power supply. However, the problem persisted so i started to think maybe it's a windows problem but the system shutdown even when i was in bois. For some reason i decided to touch the cooler and it was so hot that i almost burnt my hand off.. | |
