To help us help you would you please add your systems specs? Here's how: System Info - See Your System Specs
Under System Manufacturer/Model Number add whether it is a desktop or laptop and whether self built.
Log in to Seven Forums and you will be able to transfer the info directly to the specs page in your profile from within the System Info app.
After doing this your specs will be available in each of your posts. Click on mine in the lower left to see how it should look.:)
Full instructions in the tutorial.
As I wrote before my computer can't stay turned on long enough to install any of those programs.
Update:
I got a power supply from work and plugged it in. Everything seems to be running smooth. No randomly turning off and no BSODs. So I am pretty sure that the system shutting off part was related to that.
I checked the temperatures with the recommended software, they seemed fine. When under pressure, my graphic card get around to 87C (the maximum is 100 C) so I'm guessing thats okay.
The only problem is that the power supply I got does not fit in my casing, so I need to find one that does. I will test out with the one I got for a couple of days before I go by a new one.
My (hopefully) last question in this tread, could the BSOD I experienced earlier also be related to the broken power supply, or could it be something else?
A poor PSU can cause BSODs. With the borrowed supply it all seems well so apparently yours was poor. A standard ATX version PSU should work in your case unless it's a Dell.
The GPU temp is just fine.
Finally got a new PSU and got it plugged in. Everything seem to work:)
Thanks guys for helping me crack this.
