Re: PC shuts down unexpectedly

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

What changes have you made to hardware and software immediately prior to
the problem occurring?

Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties,
Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code?

Try Start, Run, type "sigverif.exe" without quotes and hit OK. What
drivers are listed as unsigned? Disregard those which are not checked.

What is your Windows XP CD as it is described on the face of the CD?

sorry for posting on someone else's thread but I have little time
before this notebook shuts down again.

I have had the same problem, cpu temp ok, and windows just shuts down
without warning and randomly.

Last shutdown brought up a blue screen with this.

A problem has been detected & windows has been shut down to prevent
damage to your computer.

If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart
your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps.

Check to sure you have adequate disk space. If a driver is identified
in the stop message, disable the driver or check with the
manufacturer for diver updates. Try changing video adapters.

Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates, disable BIOS
memory options such as caching or shadowing, restart your computer,
press F8 to select advanced options and then select safe mode.

When I managed to get the computer working again a windows dialogue
box came up with this.

Any ideas, please help?

I've faced the following problem: yesterday I started Norton Spyware
scan which then was checking computer for spyware for about five
hours. During that time I was typing documents so the the processor
worked for full power. After seven hours of such work the computer
shut down unexpectedly though everything was fine.
Today I have been sufing the internet (for about 10 minutes) and
downloading Norton Antivirus updates when suddenly my computer has
shut down again. I've started it and surfed the internet again and
the same problem has occured. Windows Update has stopped working
though it is enabled. I wonder is it a problem with windows or my
computer. Could it be overheating?
Can anyone help me to resolve this problem?
Oh, I've forgot to mention I've got laptop computer Toshiba
Satellite with windows XP Home Edition (SP1). Intell pentium III
processor 1,10 Ghz

Thanks in advance!
