PLZ HELP

[dNiym]

His programs aren't closing his mother board is shutting down, he gets no error messages, no blue screen of death, just a black screen. Im willin to bet his monitor light turns amber or a little box pops up saying no signal too.

exactly what dinym said, so how can i fix it?

he isnt getting an error message, its hardware PSU or Video Card. Reformatting is a waste of your time if your OS was otherwise running fine. Order a good 400+ watt Power supply from ANTEC or someone reputable and clean the dust out of your computer and your problem will magically vanish. The wattage of the PSU should be directly related to how many accessories you have inside the case (# of hard drives, cd drives/burners, case fans, blacklights or whatever else is there) If you have 2 hdd's and 2 cd drives a little 300 watt power supply isnt enough, because all those 12v+ accessories are power hungry because they have moving parts. (except for lights most of them dont move...)

If its a PSU problem, I recommend that not only your PSU Watts are above 400, but also your 12V line has 24A+. Antec 480 should give you what you need, and don't buy a shitty brand that looks like it will blow up in your face.
