Yesterday I was watching movies in full screen mode in VLC player when suddenly my system shutsdown. I was taken aback. Mobo light was on. Pressed the power button but nothing comes. Then putoff the switch from behind the PSU and put on again. Now pressed the power switch again and system started. can it be a PSU prob?
All these happened around 5.30p.m. to 6
After entering in the windows I checked WHO CRASHED but it is not showing any crash dump analysis.
There is no .dmp file under minidump also and no BSOD pops up before shutdown.
Then opened the Device Manager and saw APC software marked by yellow icon. Uninstalled it immediately.
After that at around 11 p.m. IT HAPPENED AGAIN. This time also there is no BSOD and I was watching movie in VLC in full screen mode. Uninstalled VLC and installed again. Even if I assume that VLC was malfunctioning will the whole system go for a toss?
No dump file created in minidump this time also.
This time I entered in EVENT VIEWER and have seen the logs. For both the times when it shuts down its written KERNEL-POWER critical preceded and followed by several ERROR , WARNING.(will post screenshot after going to home)
Full scan in KIS 2011 done with no issue. HDD CHK in HDD SENTINEL done with no bad sector sign.
No abnormal temps observed.(mobo-33 CPU-41)
Not able to understand whether the problem is SOFTWARE or HARDWARE related. Pls help me out as I have almost everything in my cabby under warranty but cannot pinpoint the culprit.
[CONFIG=SIGGY
OS WIN 7 32 without SP1
no catalyst installed, no audio driver from mobo dvd installed.]
Any solution?
