Hi lads. 

Yesterday I installed Windows on a friend

I delivered the pc and it worked great. 

Then after around 4-5 hours of use it shuts down. It is in kind of a boot loop but it only keeps going for about 2 minutes before rebooting. This also happens in the bios. (So I figured it wasn't a windows issue).

 

Help?

Did you remember to apply the thermal paste and remove the plastic protectors?

I think it's maybe his psu. What psu your friend has?

He has a TX550M so I figured it wouldn't be a problem.

I did not actual build anything for him. He found a great price at a prebuilt store. But they want over 100 euros for the windows install, so I went ahead and saved him some money.

 

But after FINALLY getting into the bios I could see that the voltage was around 1.36-1.42 ish. Isn't that a lot?
