If Furmark makes the system shutdown right away, keep Speecy up and running showing the temps and fire up a Mahjongg or something else like it and observe the temps. In Speccy green temps are good, orange is a warning and red would be a problem that needs correcting. You may be able to spot an overheating component right away - this example shows normal (green) temperatures: With Speccy (and other temperature monitoring softwares) you can monitor the temps and leave that up and running to observe while you apply some stress to the system to see Speccy shows which temps getting out of range.
It is actually good that you have what sounds like a repeatable failure case with things like Mahjongg and Furmark - so when you make some adjustments and the failure case is resolved you will know you are on the right trackįurmark is a GPU stressor - not a CPU stressor so the issue might be something to do with the GPU on your system but you can check them both.įirst it would be good to check to see that all the cooling fans on the case, power supply, CPU and GPU are clear of dust and debris (a can of compressed air is a good idea) and all fans are spinning and working properly. Sometimes the system will not restart again right away until things cool off a bit.ĬPU and video intensive things like games, YouTubes, etc. Usually there is no warning, no error messages, nothing written to the event logs, no Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) because there is no time to do that - the system just powers off. More details would be needed to investigate the WMI errors and those may be forthcoming.Ĭomputer hardware is designed to shut down when a thermal event occurs to prevent permanent damage. The system shutdown sure reeks of a thermal (heat) issue - I would work on that first.
