Ya I am thinkin that the problem was due to the dust. Now with Outlook Express, what happens is you double click on the icon, and the splash screen loads. It freezes on the splash screen. The only way to get out of it is to restart.

IF I have a chance I'll check the PSU again. But re-cleaning the CPU fan seemed to work. Hasn't turned off in 3 days! Now that seems to be fixed, but now we're having problems with Outlook Express.

Well I opened the PC up again to dust a lil bit more. Got a lot of dust of the CPU cooler chich could have been blocking a majority of the air flow. No leaking capacitors from what I could see. I also looked at the PSU, and it wasn't BestTec for sure; just can't think of the name.

I would have to recommend one of the following two free progams. Comodo or Online Armor

Mhmm, just turns off. No reboot. Will look when I get home TheTerrorist_75. The PC was a new HP when we got it, and it is a little more than 3 years old.

Glad I was of service. I would still run the tool I posted above though, I see some actieve threats on your pc.

Hi all, Well my parents PC just turns off right after the Windows XP screen comes on. I tried using last know good configuration a few times with the same affect. My next thought was too boot into Safe Mode and to see if I can find a virus or something. Same thing, right after loading the drivers, shuts down. All I can think of is it might be over heating, but I dunno. I have done my best to spray all the dust out of the tower, and that worked for some time, but now its back to its old issues. Any thoughts or help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
