Alright lads, well another PC problem with me. :(

Last night my computer randomly decided too switch itself off. Once I had realized it had gone off I tried to switch it back on again. It wouldn't work but I heard a High Pitched noise coming from the PC possibly the PSU.

I think I pretty much confirmed this by switching the PSU switch off and the sound had gone but once I switch it back on again its back.

Doubt very much its anything to do with my mobo as I've recently just had to get a new one of them.

I did overclock my cpu about a week ago but only from 2.0Ghz to 2.50Ghz and the temperatures where fine. So I doubt that is the problem. My CPU is an AMD Athlon 64 3500+ and my power supply is a Hyper 500W PSU.

Any quick response would be greatly appreciated.
 
Funny thing is when I don't have music on, I can hear the "squealing" in my headphones. Talk about ear ache :p



My OCZ Psu has always done it, I've never had any problems with it. BTW I've had it for about 7 months.

Edit: Just read that your computer turned off, does it turn off randomly all the time or was it just the once ?

It was the first time it switched itself off mate. And I wouldn't know because it hasn't turned back on ever since lmao :P

Just ordered a new PSU so hopefully that will fix it!
