Sometimes my computer will just restart itself at completely random times.

It could be a lot of possible things, such as my power strip, my PSU, or some electrical problem in my room.

When I get restarted, I've checked my sisters computer to see if it was still on, and it is.

After some troubleshooting, I've found that it doesn't seem like it is messing with my other components connected via the power strip.

So as far as I can tell it would be my PSU, which would be a very possible situation, since I am using a PSU that came with my case.

It may also be a problem of power, since it is a 380W case PSU.


Please make comments about what you think it may be, and possible free fixes.

Thanks

or it could have something to do with drivers colliding or a virus on your computer...

Definitely not the temperature, or a virus.

Definitely has nothing to do with the content on the computer, it is something hardware related.

I am almost sure it is the PSU at this point, hopefully I can enough money together to finally be able to build a nice computer in August (4870X2 *fingers crossed* )

I don't have any PSUs so that is a no-go.

I'll just leave my inquiry at that.

Thanks.
