Don't ask me what the NAME of all those different colors are. Give me 20 shades of some color and I can line'm up in color depth order but they're all still just "pink" or "blue" or "red" .....

Color "names" are retarded and only serve to confuse people. Ask any graphic artist or press operator what a color is, and they'll give you a Pantone Matching System number. Same standards all over the world, so they don't argue about "light cream" vs. "eggshell" or whatever (for instance, official "stop sign red" is PMS 187 if I remember right).

So I'm going to be making some business cards for knife sharpening later, would you guys mind judging them when I get to make them?
Also I just noticed that 95% of my posts are in the BK&T forums lol.
 
Damn, I'm getting close to the 13,000 mark. I have over 14,000 on another forum, haha. Rarely go there anymore though.

Really aren't any symptoms, it just shuts down. Actually, it reboots. I'm wondering about he graphics card. Here's the temps at boot up:

And just after a few seconds watching a video, it's like this:

Speedfan is a great program, I have used it for a long time. It isn't showing any graphics card fan so you may have integrated graphics. One thing it could be, as I have had 2 mobo's die from it, is the northbridge chip may be over heating. Try blowing a big fan directly into the case and see if it still shuts down. I had one mobo that I had to run a box fan on until the chipset actually fried, it bubbled the compound on the chip before it died... not much to do about it, I added a small fan onto one board as it only had a heat sink from the factory. Sometimes you can remove the heatsink/fan and clean it up and use a high quality thermal paste like Arctic Silver..

Forgot to add, right click on speedfan and select "run as administrator" so it access all the temp sensors it can..

I cleaned it out good. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it was. Someone on another forum recommended the thermal paste. Looks like a fairly simple process. It's been shutting down like every 50 minutes to an hour. So far, 46 minutes for this time. I have the side cover off. I ran a box fan really close to it, but it still shut off. As a matter of fact, SpeeddFan was showing it was cool. Must be something else. I read a lot that crap registry errors can cause it to reboot itself as well.

Usually the registry doesn't get fouled up unless you are messing around in it.. were you tweaking something? Might be the power supply going out.. You can try to restore your OS, what are you running? Windows 7?

Nah, this is an older computer. Father in law gave it to me. It's a Gateway, running Vista Home Premium. I've messed with the registry many times, but always do a backup before I do. I did a system restore yesterday, twice, and it wouldn't restore. It recommended I go back further, so I took it to a few weeks ago. It restored, but the problem persisted.
 
So, I read that crappy registry entries can also cause problems shutting down. One place recommended "Wise Registry Cleaner". It's a cleaner/optimizer. Since I've run it, I've had no shutdowns, knock on wood. Been an hour and 22 minutes so far.
