Hello...I'm not sure if this is the right section to post in, but I hope some of you could shed some light on my problem. My computer (Toshiba Satellite 1955-S805, laptop) has been shutting down on its own lately, but I've noticed it mainly happens during file transfer such as music. Here are a few of the occurances that I have written down. It crashed when it was reading songs prior to burning them to a CD, it crashed when moving songs over to my ipod, and it crashed when importing songs from a CD to itunes. It also shuts down every time I try to run a full system scan using adaware. I can run a smart scan using adaware and it gets through that just fine. Please shed some light on my problem. I'm running Windows XP home. Thanks in advance.

Ew, that sounds horrible. Does it shutdown, or restart?

it shuts completely down. I might add that when I restart it, I have to wait a few minutes because if I just push the power button right after the shutdown, it gets stuck on the toshiba boot screen and doesn't proceed any further, and I end up having to hold the power button down to get it to shut off so I can start it again.

The booting thing sounds like a BIOS problem. I have no idea what the other problem could be. Sounds like something is conflicting with something else.

Sorry I couldn't help too much(or at all).
