PC shuts off, have to unplug and plug back in to get it back on
My Win 10 Pro PC has lately been shutting off without warning - screens go black, then the fans kick up for a few seconds and then everything powers off. But I can't just hit the power switch to turn it back on. I have to pull the power plug out of the power supply and plug it back in to get it to power back on.
It seems to have been happening mostly on my son's profile, and he plays Minecraft and Roblox all the time. He's constantly downloading shaders, add-ons and various other junk, which I'm wondering is having something to do with this issue. It pretty much never happens on my profile, but today it just did, after it happened 2 or 3 times within half an hour on my son's profile.
*edit* I couldn't find much info in Event Viewer that I could readily recognize as an issue, but I did notice 1,435 Event ID 13's from Source nvlddmkm, all of them happened at exactly 11:31:02 this morning, about 48 minutes before making this post. */edit*
Because of the power cord issue I'm wondering if it's a power supply issue. Back around last Christmas I did a major system upgrade with a new 6-core Ryzen processor, motherboard, nVME SSD, Corsair Vengeance 32 GB RAM and 6 GB GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card. But I kept the same Seasonic M12II 650W power supply that I've had since May 2013. It's basically a new machine other than my data HDD's and power supply.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. I do a lot of remote work from home on this machine and can't afford to have it shutting down on me while I'm in the middle of work.
