Computer shutdown and restarts problem

Based on little information we have and on how the problem is described, my money is on the PSU. I've been down that road before. Also, considering the age of the components, it's very plausible. Does the computer have a hard time starting from a cold boot? Does it seem to shut down more under load than idling? Are their any weird noises (distant high pitch)?
 
Been in a bit of a snit.
My health is a bit off.
Sorry for anything bad.
 
Where does it show CPU temp ?

Hi Here's a PSR Zip file how I used Speccy. Each step is recorded. I can teach you how to use PSR also if you like.:D
This is the way I use the snipping tool when I just want a part of Speccy. If you have a better way, please show me how.

Temperature on Speccy is 46c at idle,it seems as far as I know the thermal margin temp is correct its of AMD overdrive,totally a different type of reading.
Since temps are good, I agree that it is likely to be PSU or nVidia card. Swapping in with 'known good" is usual approach. Other than that, it could be a voltage management chip on the motherboard - so a careful well lit inspection might show something.
Also, if you haven't already, run memtest86 overnight.
 
I think the OP has moved on. His CPU temp was clearly shown in post #13
Thanks.
Just asked about temps in Speccy.
So many posters don't know their ***HOLES from a hole in the ground I thought I would ask. :)
Yes you did and I have explained how to find them in Speccy and posted a step by step zip how to do that.
I think it's time we all moved on. I do know my xxx from a hole in the ground. You asked how to find temps with Speccy. I provided the way.:D Time to move on as the OP has asked us to do. Team work can get messy at times, but it's still a good thing IMHO.

Haven't figured out how to change C° to F°.

Wasn't referring to you holdum323. :)
Just most of the people who post.
You will notice that you & I do not post with problems we need others to solve for us.
 
Hi @DavidBailey Did you open my PSR zip file showing how I copy parts of Speccy so I can copy and paste just a single part of Speccy. I don't know how I can make it any plainer. Did I miss spell any works? ROFL

Had to use online converter to convert it(mht) to PDF since I don't use IE.
Have latest version of Speccy.
Still see no temp for CPU.
Not that it matters.

Did I miss spell any works?
works=words ?:)

Don't let it bother you too much,now your beginning to understand why I don't bother with them and do it my own way.
If it keeps going on like "always", just report their posts and talk to one of the global mods.
One of them is one step away of being put out of techspot in due time.
