Components failing? :(

[Joey96]

Hey guys!

 

So I've just experienced my first "random shut down", my monitor went into hibernation mode and said "no signal", and my keyboard also shut down (the RGB went out). I tried to shut down the pc by holding down the power button but it wouldn't shut the system down, so I had to pull the switch. It's the first time i experience something like this, so I dont know whats going on, hoping that you guys could help me.

I was simply watching a movie not doing anything heavy, I've never experienced this before even while gaming at heavy load. 

 

Hope you guys can help me out!

What power supply do you have? was there any surge or power peak?

This has happened to me as well, it can be from a sudden spike of volts from the main power source, or maybe the PSU failed. Have you tried starting the PC again?

Please list your parts, maybe i can draw a conclusion from there.

I have a FSP600-50ARN 88+ Silver 600W, how do I check for surges or power peak when I have already restarted my system?

What were you doing at the time it happened? Anything stressful like gaming or intensive processing tasks?

When you restarted your windows would have picked up a short. Did  it display an error message?

Nope, simply watching a movie with chrome on facebook in the back

Nothing at all, it booted up as it normally would, even the startup time is same

So my PSU is all good? Not going to fry my system? It just had me worried since I was simply watching a movie.

no don't worry about it, is your PC plugged into a surge protector?

Go to Event Viewer (search in Windows) > Go to Windows log > Go to System and look for any errors that related to shut down

The only thing i got was "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly." being a kernel power and critical. And "The previous system shutdown at 12:09:01 on ‎19-‎05-‎2017 was unexpected." being error from eventlog

Absolutely plug any expensive electrical goods into a surge protected extension or outlet.
