G73j suddenly shuts down - even when booting from Asus screen

Hi,

I badly need some advice.
I have a G73j - Corei7, 8GB ram, ATI Radeon 5870, 2 x 500GB hard drives. This was purchased in December 2010.

It shuts down suddenly, randomly while booting from Asus start up screen, sometimes after windows has loaded, and even when I open a program.

Does anyone have a solution ? or has faced similar problem ?

Thanks,

Satheesh

Hi Satheesh - If I were in your situation, I would get memtest86+ and thoroughly check your RAM, 2 sticks at a time, 3 passes each. The reseating of the memory sticks may also help your issue.

It may also be worthwhile to install HWINFO64 or SpeedFan and configure the utility you choose to log CPU and GPU temperatures in Celsius.
