keeps shutting down all the time im getting pretty pissed. i cant play i cant ... do much except watch movies and browse the internet.

anything that got a scannnig kind of thing, like connected to the CPU immideatly shuts the pc down. poof dead, it just dies. then i have to remove the cable from the rear and re-attach it to be able to start the PC up.

any clue what it might depend on?

hmm might not be enuff power getting to the PC, or your GFX card is overheating (or the CPU?) not sure m8, but its usually 1 of those things

power supply is probably going dead.

might be the CPU tho, cuz when i touched it it was hot as a ... well it was hot.
althought the temp showed 55* C

i just installed the latest ATI drivers and it all fixed itself

Sounds familiar but a lightning blew my powersurge protector fuse so i had to buy a new one but it saved a 1300$pc
