Your computer shuts down unexpectedly due to a new GPU.
Your computer shuts down unexpectedly due to a new GPU.
It might be the power source itself, as the capacitors in power supplies gradually lose their strength and can't hold full capacity over time. Because the 3060 Ti functions on a different PC with another PSU of similar wattage, it seems your current supply is likely nearing replacement.
Absolutely, I think it's a good idea. Upgrading to a 750 would be a smart move since they're now very affordable.
Great understanding of the problem, PSUs are definitely tricky to replace. Still, they’re not too costly. I’ll go ahead and pick one, thanks again!
It's actually quite smart to be cautious about using the correct cables for the new PSU. If the physical connectors don't match, it could seriously damage the component.
Installed a 700w power supply unit. It keeps restarting unexpectedly after logging into Windows. I’m unsure what’s causing it—could the graphics card be defective? It worked fine on another system, but not here.
Inspect the event viewer for any issues and note anything unusual around restart periods. Share the findings here.
From the recent restarts I received an issue: Session "Microsoft.Windows.UpdateHealthTools" did not start due to error 0xC0000035 (kernel eventracing). Windows failed to install the update for Windows Defender Antivirus (KB4052623, version 4.18.2001.10) and encountered installation failure 0x80073D02: 9NMPJ99VJBWV-Microsoft.YourPhone. It appears the process stopped because of a restart.
Search results show the GPU driver experienced a crash and Windows couldn't recover. Consider booting in safe mode and using DDU to perform a clean uninstall and reinstall. Further guidance may be available on the forum or from someone with more experience.
