Older Win 10 Desktop shutting down spontaneously
Hello,
I have an older desktop that I built myself that has been having independent shutdown problems for some time. The presenting symptom started with a quick shut down right after boot was initiated, with a quick restart after that. Next, the desktop started to shut down while I was working. At times this seemed to accompany more extensive loads on the video card, but not always. This morning, the computer got caught in a loop during the boot cycle, wherein it would keep starting and shutting down, never able to fully load windows 10. As I cannot get it to boot I am unsure as to the OS Version number (1909?) or even many hardware/driver specifics.
I had tried to find out what was causing the fault on my own but was never able to figure out if it was a problem with the power supply, video card or some driver issue. I would like to fix it, but am not sur where to start at this point.
Any help would be appreciated
