My Sony Js430f Keeps Powering Down.
My Sony JS430F keeps powering down on its own. The first time it took 2 hours to power down, the second time it took 40 min then it powered down again. When I turn it on after it has powered itself down, it prompts me at the screen that tells you that you did not shut your computer down properly, would you like to restart it in safe mode or start it normally. Do these computers have problems with overheating? What can I do the keep this from happening?
