My wife's s5610f will suddenly shut down without warning.

‎04-05-2012 10:20 AM

My wife has a 1-year old HP Slimline s5610F. A couple of days ago, her system shut down without any error messages. At first I assumed that perhaps her system overheated, so I cleaned out the inside of the case with canned air. This didn't fix the problem.

 

All of the fans are working and the built-in diagnostics show that all of the core components are still working. Could the power supply be failing?

Necator, welcome to the forum.

 

I believe that you may have solved your own problem.  It definitely sounds like a failing power supply unit (PSU).  You have done everything else that I would have suggested.  Here is a guide that will help you troubleshoot the problem.
