SOURCE: My computer shuts down after 3 secs

Try to separate the power cord of your monitor from your system or maybe if your using UPS(uninterrupted power supply) directly plug the UPS to the wall outlet. either you can use pretty voltage regulator to the regulate the AC power.
if not solve the problem try to examine the your system power supply.

Hi!

Please check for the cables coming into the motherboard from the power supply. Also try and check for any loose cables.

If that doesn't help then please get your power supply changed as its faulty.

SOURCE: come on, boots up, then shuts down 5 - 10 minutes later.

check your power options make sure you don't have hibernation enabled, its in the system control panel. try booting from a linux live cd like Ubuntu which you can download for free. If it runs fine under linux, its a windows problem, if it keeps shutting down its a hardware problem. Could be bad ram, or CPU overheating.

SOURCE: power supply fan control partially failed. fan is

i guess u r a professional..as u r handling power supplies..
u point of view has always a priority, in such case u gotta replace the fan..

however, the problem of system shutting down suddenly has many more reasons too..check the following:

1) the smps itself may b defective/faulty..check the outputs of smps viz. 0v (black~ground); +12v (yellow); +5v (red, green~ps-on, violet~pg & grey~sb); -12v (blue); -5v(white); +3.3v(orange)..
the 'oscillator and error amplifier ic', or pwm switching regulator circuit..look for defective protector-transformer/resistance(esp 4.7k)/mosfet..

2) if itz not the smps, then it must b ur main/mother board..see with a debug card for mb error..may b short..look for defective capacitors(esp above 1000mfd)/mosfets..go through the mb's south bridge n the circuit lie around atx connector....

3) remove/clean dust neatly..dust is non-uniform in nature n may cause jam/short circuitry/excess resistace n many more..resulting an increase in heat..

4) open the CPU Heat-Sink with fan out of the socket..put some "Heat Sink Compound" (available in local electronics chip level spare market) between the cpu/processor and the CPU Heat Sink *** fan..resit/fit it tightly in position..

5) see if the ram(s) is loose/faulty..open clean/remove carbon & or oxide formed on the teeth with an eraser n resit it..

..plz give higher priority to step2 (as listed above) CAREFULLY..

always better to seek advise from ur system admin/vendor....

Testimonial: "The fan is OK, checked on seperate PS. Good thoughts though!"

Shuts down and gives me failure E 1 on the card and will not start

E1 = The air filters need cleaning (after 720 Hours use)
It will shut down until you clean the filters & reset the E1 alarm code.
To do this you need to:
Pull the Air Con appliance lead out of the power outlet in the wall.
Remove & Clean the air filters & then put the cleaned filters back in machine
Before plugging back in you Push & Hold the Power button on the Unit
THEN while holding the power button you PLUG the lead back into the wall.
Keep Holding the power button until you hear the unit emit a beep (hold for approx 5 secs)
Then disconnect the power supply lead again.
Then Plug it back in again & turn on
It should be cleared & working well.
Good luck

SYSTEM POWER GETTING ON AND GET OFF BETWEEN 5-10 SEC

Generally, this is caused by one of three things:
  1. cpu overheat (check the CPU and see if the fan is properly mounted to it.). If the system detects a masive overheat, it will shut down in order to prevent damage to electronic components (and in some case, fire).
  2. bad CPU or motherboard short/overheat
  3. the Power Supply is bad.
Generally, in most of my cases with customers in real life- it's one of the three. Unfortunately, unless you have the skillset and some spare parts laying around to troubleshoot this sort of thing- I would suggest possibly bringing it in to a computer repair store for diagnosis.

When i press power on button of cpu for start the system, the systems has start but suddenlly shut down of off whole systems. give me slolution for fix this problem

Overheating. The shutting down is a fail-safe. You need to first open your cabinet and check your fans and make sure that your computer aren't filled with dust. If it is blow it out with air duster and it should solve the problem.
If your fans have failed, you'll need to replace them. If they haven't, your next step is to increase their speed. The utility below will monitor you temperature and increase your fan's speeds to keep the system cool. If you are unable to cool your computer down to the point where it stays on, your power supply had gone bad and needs to be replaced.

My comp shuts down at least once a day. i shut it off wait a few sec and start it back up, seems to be good for several hrs. i have run ccleaner and microsoft essentials and they both allways say there is...

it could be a power supply issue.. shut down the computer

remove all connections that go to the power supply , look inside the connectors and inside the mainboard coinnections, make sure there is no corrosion or dust in the connections

use something , like CO2 air can to blow off the dust from the mainboard..

plug all connections back.,. start computer ..if problem persist, it couls be a hardware or s/w compatability issue.

I have a 93 Jeep Wrangler 4.0 that cranks and doesn't wanna start. Fuel Pump is working and has good fuel pressure. Problem is coil loses power after the first start. I put in new distributor, new coil,...

Ok...you mentioned that there is no spark coming from the coil when it's in no start...Is there power from the alternator going to the coil?
One other item...If the timing chain is worn and stretched, it is possible that the cam sensor and crank sensor are out of phase with each other, just enough where a temperature difference will change starting ability.
One question...while in no start, have you tried changing the throttle position while cranking to see if it lights at part or 3/4 throttle?
