My comp will just decide to shut down randomly all of a sudden and then turn it back on and it does it again. Any thoughts?

Hey I think its the power supply. When a computer just randomly reboots like that it is the usual cause. But we need more info to help you

It could be because youre computer is not cooled well, make sure it has good air flow. new computers shut down when the reach a certain temperature to prevent melting

I am starting to get annoyed. We have had to literally extract info out of you. It is worse than pulling teeth!
Why can you not answer the questions?
Why is this so hard for you?
How can we help you?
Do you always answer with monosyllabic replies?
What prog are you trying to install??
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is that supposed to mean? How the hell can we help someone if he refuses to give us information?
We keep asking questions, we get one word answers. Why should I bother,if he doesn't
Can you answer that?
