Start off with that ^. My problem is similar to his. Once in a while (this doesnt happen very often, but it does) my computer will make a buzzing/beeping noise for like 2 seconds through my speakers then shut off and turn back on. Its like a blue screen, except with no blue screen.

is this my psu going bad? feedback would be appreciated

CPU: Intel Core Duo E4500 @ 2.20GHz
Video Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102810
PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817152036
3GB ram

I did build this myself.
Around 2 years old maybe?
Ive never monitored my temps before (i have no clue what my temps are even supposed to be :/ )

but when it does shut off i feel my computer and the tower is fine but sometimes the motherboard is a bit hot.

Sounds like an overheating problem. You could potentially:


Need a more powerful psu
More fans in that bitch
Reapply thermal paste



If you don't start doing some of the above (I'd start with the paste->fans and then go to better psu)
you could experience problems where you need a new

psu
cpu
motherboard
video cards
etc
etc.


Have fun.
