hi guys!

just recently, my computer has begun to randomly shut itself off in the middle of surfing on a rocket (the net, of course) and, well, quite frankly shutting off whenever it feels like it in the midst of doing anything on the computer. it doesn't happen too often (or at least not yet).

about 4 days ago, it randomly shut down. a couple of days later, i had left it on to go and pick my sister up from the wrath of school and when we got back home, the computer had shut itself down yet again...which, for anyone, is always a bit disconcerting, especially when one is still making payments!

after it has randomly shut itself down, on the "power button", there is a blinking yellow light. i can unplug the computer and plug it back in and restart and everything reboots perfectly normal. it's just that there will be these abnormal occurences when it seems to terminate itself and shut down.

any thoughts/ideas/comments/help would be thoroughly appreciated!

blessings,

-derrick-
