Computer crashes while working on assemblies
Computer crashes while working on assemblies
(OP)
Hello there
I have been working on an assembly and today, my computer all of a sudden started just crashing right down (i.e. shuts down completely as if the power cord was pulled) everytime I save the assembly. I am totally confounded as to why this could be happening. It wasn't happening before today. My machine is fairly ok, if the not top-of-the-line, in terms of hardware specs.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

2) Have someone check your computers power supply or just swap it with a known good one.

If you have a boot disk, try to get to the c:\ prompt & dig around.
