Here's the story with my computer...
After about 90 minutes of use, my computer shuts itself off. If I want to turn it back on, I have to wait a while and hit the power button (I haven't tried the reset.). This started happening after a installed a reconditioned 400 W power supply. I obtained this power supply from a relative who greased the motor on the fans.
This reconditioned power supply is a replacement for a power supply that I used for 4 or 5 years. I had to replace the old power supply (250 W) because it was making loud noises.
I have not had any other problems with the reconditioned power supply. I did not have any problems with my computer until the old power supply started making an abnormal noise.
Do you think the problem with my computer shutting itself off is due to the power supply or the motherboard?
Thanks in advance for your help.
