| 575460 | 2007-08-02 06:57:00 | It's been twice now, over a period of 3 days. While I'm at school, mum noticed the computer was off. The green power light was on, though. I did not turn the computer off - neither did my mum. It's happened twice, I'll have to see what happens during the week. It's only happened when I'm at school. Coincidence? Any ideas? |

| 575463 | 2007-08-02 07:39:00 | The power may have gone off briefly. This happens. Sometimes it happens often. ;) | Graham L (2) | ||
| 575464 | 2007-08-02 07:42:00 | The power may have gone off briefly. This happens. Sometimes it happens often. ;) I hope that's the case. Would be a pain in the butt for me having to track down and fix/replace the damn culprit. |

| 575467 | 2007-08-02 08:51:00 | I had a similar thing a few months back. I could be using the PC and randomly it would switch off and instantly restart, could happen once or twice a day. Changed the PC power plug into a different socket on the powerboard and that cured the problem. Still looking for a good replacement powerboard for a reasonable price. |

| 575469 | 2007-08-02 09:00:00 | Yeah my vote goes for a really good quality power board also, had this problem a month or so ago after we had experienced a lot of power outages. May have damaged the board and when I replaced it I haven't experienced another failure, although at the same time I did a major anti virus, spyware + trojan check and i can't be sure that this didn't fix the problem. | limepile (96) | ||
