Hello,
I am running Ubuntu on a newly built PC. It was all running great and then I had to ship my computer home from school. When I unpacked it, it no longer works.
After anywhere from 15 seconds to 4 minutes, the computer will just shut off as if someone unplugged it. I am assuming this is a hardware problem; perhaps an overheat protection.
Any ideas on why this is happening would be appreciated.
Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo
ASUS P5N-E SLI LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
WD 500GB hard drive
Some old ATI video card (PCI)
