DV5 1020ev CPU or Motherboard

‎11-12-2011 05:16 AM

I have a very strange problem with my laptop  and I would need your help if anyone knows

The problem:
Computer turns normally on and shut off with out reason in time of 5 min or 5 hours later, other times. Even with only the essentials parts motherboard + CPU the problem stills the same. Of course the heatsinks are clear and with new paste and also I have tried it with out battery and a new AC adapter.
Is a problem of motherboard this or a failure of CPU that is generating in random time?

unlikely to be the cpu...cpu issues are fairly rare and usually all or nothing. It is likely the motherboard or even the memory. Have you run a full memtest on it?

No I didn't but does the same problem ever without ram or just one dimm, so must be the motherboard.
