Hi there
I recently posted in the general section about PC issues I've had:
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18062029
My PC Spec
Corsair HX 620W PSU ( bought from competitor )
8800gtx ( bought from OCUK in ages ago )
Phenom II x3 720 @ 3.4 ( bought from OCUK in Apr 2009 )
Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4p MB ( bought from OCUK in Apr 2009 )
4GB Corsair XMS3 DDR3 TwinX memory ( bought from OCUK in Apr 2009 )
Sunbeam Core Contact cooler ( bought from OCUK in Apr 2009 )
1 x WD 250GB and 1 x WD 750GB Sata drives
DVDRW drive
Since then I've had my PC shutting down on me unexpectedly a few times already, twice in the past hour.
What's strange is viewing the sensors via SIW.exe, the -12v is reading between about -9.4 and -9.9V , is this indicative of the PSU being the issue.
I've searched the forum and a few tech sites but can't get too much info regarding what the -12v reading means.
Any ideas ?
