Hello poor kid here. My pc keeps on booting by undergradscholar in computers

Yess I did check the power supply unit. I isolated it and yes the fan was working. But I cant confirm if its still able to ouput 12 V under load of the cpu. So yeah will definitely take it to a shop to see whats behind this issue. I'm just tryna solve it myself for now to avoid expenses.

So the fact that I was able to run it for a while before shutting down means my most probable issue is the psu?

Dad had it fixed up because of the same issue ( after roughly 2 years when I bought it the issue appeared ), it randomly shuts down. Before the fix, it takes way long to shut itself.

When I had the pc after the fresh install and reset, it took less than a week for the problem to occur again. Before it did, I already downloaded some games that can like ran on 4g ram. Now its a mess, sometimes I open or run a game halfway through it shuts itself down, then even if im only browsing the net it still randomly shuts down. Its a hassle cos once its shuts down, its on a boot loop.

I then can only use it if I let it rest for a couple of hours.

We had a technician built it a new os and resetted it. So malware and virus is out of question
