right click on my computer...then properties...hardware tab... then Device Manager...
look for any yellow! or ? marks...also any red...if there isn't any then..
click the + sign next to IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers....
You'll see two or more items...the ones were interested in are the Primary IDE Channel and Secondary IDE Channel
Right click on each of them.... and click Uninstall.... Confirm....
Reboot.... They'll be automatically reinstalled....
try burning again...
no joy... then I would replace the PSU with a 450 W or greater

Every time I use avast antivirus now it is turning my computer off. It didn't do this before and my computer has started turning itself off randomly lately too.
