HELP!

My PC Keeps crashing even when it's idling, i have nothing on it.

At first i thought it was my hard drive failing so i bought a new one and it wasn't that so i don't know what now!

I Have re installed windows, cleaned my PC Out applied new thermal paste and the PC Has to heat problems and i have even updated all my drivers.

The PC Goes loud and then just crashes like to turned it of at the plug?

Any ideas?

I have never heard of this. I have a computer out in the family room that roars like a jet engine but it never crashes. If i were you, either 1. Take it to a repair shop. or 2. Get a new HDD/RAM for your computer. I know both of these are a bit costly but if you want your computer to work then i suggest you do one of these. Since you said you have nothing on it and have reset it and reinstalled windows/wiped the hdd it's most likely a hardware issue. Like i said, take it in to a repair shop or something. Also, what brand of computer do you have? Also is it custom built? Pre-made? Did you buy it new? Used? What RAM/HDD/Processor? These are all crucial when building a pc if you did build it customly. Also, if you did build it yourself where did you buy the parts?

Have you checked your RAM?

I had something similar with mine a while back, one of my sticks was being a pain in the back end

Overheating issue without a doubt.

You where saying that your
PC Has to heat problems


&

The PC Goes loud


This happens when the PC gets warm and ramps up the fans to keep everything cool.


Have you:
Cleaned out the PC & got rid of all the dust?
Clean out the heatsink.

You say you changed out the thermal paste, you only need as much as a pea so did you put to much/little on?

Do you have a dedicated GPU? - Could that be overheating.

If your still stuck, when your PC shuts down, open the side panel and feel around to see whats warm/hot.

I ment To say it has no heat issues, everything has been cleaned out. What I am going to do though is take one of the ram sticks out and see if it is still playing up and if it is put the one I took out back in and take the other one out then I can see if it is the ram

I still wouldn't rule out overheating.

If I were in your shoes, I'd download [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] and set up logging.

When it crashes, check the log to see if the temps were abnormal.

ok so i think i found out what the problem was, i checked my computer over again to see if there was a loose wire or not one plugged in and i found this random wire plugged into my motherboard and above it said speakers so i removed the wire and now my computer has been working fine so it might of been that.
