O.P. Huh?  PC powers off
I have a PC that runs fine, except that whenever I run a task that demands above normal or high CPU usage (like malware scans, defragger, etc), it shuts down forcing me to power it on again.
How can I fix this? Maybe changing some BIOS settings?? I suspect it might be the CPU fan not working efficiently as it should or some other thermal issue hardware related, in which case a simple BIOS setting change won't do it.
Any ideas? Thanks
