Hi Guys,
I am using Intel 2.66Ghz dual core processor with Asus RD 2 VM motherboard and 1 gb Transcend ram. From last few days my computer turns of automatically while running windows anytime. I have tried reinstalling Windows xp changing power supply and also have completed scan with almost all the latest antivirus like Norton, Avg, kaspersky and Bit defender but in vain.
Kindly suggest to fix this as soon as possible as I am fed up now.
Regards,
Vishal Deoghare
Check whether the heatsink is properly seated. Check for overheating.
yes the main problem (hardware) would be Heating issue i had similar problem too
try and report whether it helps
Thanks guys
Can you suggest me any cpu temp monitor software? What should I do to control the heatsink temp?
Is there any other heatsink available in the market which I can use for Intel 2.66 ghz dual core processor?
Thanks in advance
Check under BIOS.
You can use Everest under Windows to check the temperature.
@OP:
Install RealTemp and post a screen shot...if the temperature stress. Do not use the BIOS to check, cause the fan profiles do not kick in, till the OS does not load.
Hey Guys it seems that heat sink is over heating
computer is not under warranty
Is there any cheap remedy to resolve over heating problem?
dunno about the heating thing...but i had a similar problem...it turned out thatt the RAM wass loose(or dirty0....
I removed the RAM, cleaned it...and inserted it properly again....it solved my problem....try it...might solve yours as well..

hi buddy
Try out what asigh says.Download real temp and check your temp. after stressing it by using prime95 and post the screenshot using imageshack.
If the temperatures remain high then we will suggest you a good heatsink.
I had a similar problem and it was related to RAM, there was dirt stuck in it..
it also happens in case of corrupted RAM..
Apply heatsink paste and update ur bios
