I think im gonna dig a hole put my computer in it poor some gas, throw a match and then just burry it.... its pissing me off its not a bad computer its just overheating... and even when its not it randomly shuts it self off :\ id ont knwo whats wrong
 
If it's overheating/shutting off on it's own you might need a new fan. Same thing happened to me but I kept putting it off to get it checked. Wound up costing me 100$ more than it would have if I had gone as soon as it started shutting off randomly. Guy said the whole fan compartment was shot so instead of a 10$ fan, I had to pay for the whole compartment.
 
i tryed to buy a new fan.... and the douche bag at radioshack ripped me off
 
ima try that :( im just to lazy to go get in my car and drive out the door
 
But you're not too lazy to dig a hole and set your computer on fire while inside said hole?
 
Ghetto fix it, open the side panel of your case and point a regular fan you would have kicking around at it... not pretty but it will work.
 
lol ghetto fan, ive so done that!

I hate random shutodown problems more than any other pc problem there is, because it could be anything. Usually it is overheating, to which you either gotta get a new fan or change your silicone heat sink on your cpu (this was what my wifes problem was in her case). it could even be a failing memory to a dying power supply.
I currently have this problem myself but only when i play games for about an hour, then it freezes and shuts off.
angers me because my pc is pretty clean and i have 4 fans running in there with no space for more, only difference is i have a new video card in there that ive never really pushed because im not a big PC platform gamer.
but generally your problem is certainly heat, so check your silicone and your fans! if you can get a program that reads your cpu temp and have it record it when it crashes so you can see if its persistantly the cpu.
