I switched to Windows 11 about a year ago. A few months ago my PC started randomly crashing and rebooting, without any blue screens.
Am I the only one? Does someone know anything about this?
Pretty sure I can rule out power surges or overheating or stuff like that. There’s been no indication. The system log is empty as well, apart from Windows being annoyed that it just got restarted without any notice.
i join in on the PSU chorus. no bluescreen normally means power loss, so either the PSU craps out, or it doesn’t get the power. a defect of the mainboard is not completely out of the question tho.
grab yourself the free version of HWInfo64, and check the voltages below, they should be a) stable (and i mean stable - mine do not move at all and i would be concerned if they did) and b) close to the values in the name (12v, 3.3v, 5v). since you have complete power loss, it’s probably the 12v.
PSUs do age and lose about 10% of “maximum wattage” where they still stay in tolerance levels per year.
e: even if the voltages seem stable and ok i would still start looking at replacing the PSU if it’s old. e2: a classic one would be loose cables tho, either Power Cable or the 12v connector to the mainboard
