Computer restarting (not overheating)

I recently made a post on a similar topic, but an update to the situation meant I have decided to create this post.

Okay so, a few months back my PC started playing up, it would restart only when playing games (at the time I only really played Rainbow Six, but it wasn't just that). Took it to the repair place and they have replaced the PSU and fitted a temporary CPU Cooler, it has worked fine since 14th December, until now. I looked at the temps are when playing they sky rocket, my CPU temperature (FX 8320) will go from 30 to 55/65 celcius, and my "TMPIN2" will go up in the 80's. I thought it was overheating, makes sense since the temporary cooler is crap and my old one (that broke) was a liquid cooler. Just now, whilst on discord talking to friends, it restarted. I wasn't looking at the temps but I am almost 100% sure it wasn't an overheat. Discord isn't intensive at all, so that makes sense. Could the cooler be causing it to restart and I should wait for my actual cooler to be fitted? I also have a house fan next to my PC.

Thankyou.

AMD FX8320 AMD R9 270x Ga-78lmt

I'm not an AMD fanboy I bought it pre-built at the time I knew nothing about computers.

The PSU is brand new, it has been working fine since December 14th (today is January 1st 2018, lovely way to kick of the year).

I can use my PC, it loads up fine.

Error code: Kernel Power 41

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
