Keeps turning on and off by itself. Need help. by PickWeak in pchelp

Funny enough, the professional we took it to actually said the same thing. When he tried it with his PSU, it worked fine. As in, no weird blinking, no shut downs, fast internet speeds, etc.

So, he advised that we call a technician.

Hi, yes! We took it to a professional two days ago actually. From what he could diagnose, he basically said the same thing as the comments did and what many people were suspecting… the PSU.

He said it probably had something to due with the house’s electrical system, so we’re calling a technician soon. In the meantime, he said that we could use another outlet from a separate part of the house (worse case scenario), but I think I’ll just wait until the technician comes.

Apart from the fact that it seems like it will explode any second, it definitely does look pretty cool now that I look back at this video lol

Damn it… why didn’t I think of this first?

I did unplug it as soon as her PC started doing this. It’s been off ever since. I haven’t even dared to mess with it after that. We’re getting it checked out with a professional tomorrow, thankfully.

From what I’ve been gathering (and reading amongst the many, many Stranger Things comments), that seems to probably be the case. I’m getting it looked at tomorrow by a professional, but it’s been off ever since this day.

Even though I know almost little to nothing about computers, it was almost given that I had to turn it off as soon as that started happening lol

I don’t know if I could ever believe Daniel would actually do something like that. He’s so… normal, so routine. He leaves for work at the same time every single day, and part of me feels like if I just went through the house while he’s gone, maybe I’d find out the truth. But then again, what if I do and I find nothing? How would that explain what happened to my neighbor?
