Default PC keeps switching off

The Hoover Company of New Berlin, Ohio (now North Canton) built the
first electric vacuum cleaner that used both a cloth filter bag and
cleaning attachments starting in the year 1908. It was invented by James
Spangler of Canton, Ohio the previous year.




for what it's worth, Wikipedia says it was invented by Spangler in
1908.

"The first upright vacuum was invented in 1908 by a Canton, Ohio
department store janitor and occasional inventor named James Murray
Spangler."

I don't know whether that's right or not.

My sons XP (Home Premium Edition) PC keeps switching off. I've usually
taken this as overheating in the past, and have had it outside and given
it a good clean, but still have the problem. I thimk there's a log or
sometyhing I can find then poist here for someone to tell me what they
think the prob is - that right?


Damage to silicon from overheating does not heal.

As well, sudden shutdowns from hardware (including silicon) do not leave
logs.
