Awesome. My PC now switches off all the time.

Recently, my PC has been crashing a lot. I come back after work, it's crashed. I wake up in the morning, it's crashed. This has now happened 3-4 days in a row, and it means I haven't been recording any stuff with Windows Media Center.

Nothing has changed, CPU is reasonable, and I still have several Gb free on all drives (apart from 1 small partition).

Is this happening to anyone else?

Not once ... the first thought that comes to mind is a bad driver/drivers to be causing multiple BSOD, but since you have not filled out your system specs its hard to say ... Good Luck

Another thing may be a bad overclock but we need some more information and your specs if you are going to get the help you need.

 

[smarteyeball]

also, which build you are using.

and maybe the BSoD dump information

if you're not using build 7100 or newer your machine will be sutting itself down quite frequently now - probably every couple of hours or so.

You can still download the B7100 iso from the MS website.

I turned of the Java Runtime Environment I picked up from somewhere, and my PC's been on for about 3 days. Fingers crossed.

if JRE was causing problems on your machine, that is only the tip of the iceburg i would imagine.

if your using a beta version,microsoft has made it so after july they set the beta to shut down every 2 hours,until you purchase a new product key.

Acutally you mean until someone installs a RC or later build

Well, it worked. PC is still on. Everything was fine before I saw JRE in taskman, everything is fine now it's gone.

I imagine it has a lot to do with running 3 tuners and eating a lot of CPU.

And yeah I'm running the RC, pre-ordered for £45, so I'm good.
