Computer keeps turning off!

Hello! I recently bought a GTX 660 ti and whenever it gets to around 50 Celsius my entire computer turns off. What's wrong? Is it the PSU? It's a 500W PSU. Also, I used 2 Molex Y Splitter cables because the PSU did not have enough 6 Pins. I have a GUA250 for my computer just with this new card. Please help! Thanks! If you have any questions just ask.

My ipad 2 keeps turning off and on

So my little brother is playing with my ipad 2 and he keeps playing until the battery is drain to 5%, when I try to charge it, it turns off(or shut down), normally I think it is common 'cause of the drained battery, but when I charge it, the big battery logo with red lines(indicating that there's only few battery power left) showed up( I think it's charging) and without turning it back on, the apple logo showed up, and I think it turn on automatically, but when the moment it turn on, it keeps turning off again...This problem keeps repeating from the big battery logo and turning off again.
I dont know how this is happening, This is the first time this happened.
The only reason I'm thinking is, "does my ipad battery or my charger is slow in charging and when it charged a few percent of battery and turn on again it drains the charged battery again?" Any help is appreciated, And sorry for my bad english( english is not my mother language). Thanks in advance..

Hi GreeD28,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You explained the situation very well, and it sounds like you are seeing this image flash on the screen when charging your iPad:
If so, you may just need to let your iPad charge for longer before using it, as explained in this article:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
This image means that your device is charging.
It's important to note that if the battery is extremely low on power, your device may display a black screen for up to two minutes before one of these images appears. Continue charging for at least 30 minutes, or until your device is fully charged.
If you have charged your iPad and it still shows the screen above or turns off after the Apple logo appears, try these troubleshooting steps next:
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Iphone 4 keeps turning off even though its battery shows 100%

My iphone keeps turning off although the battery is 100%. I cant turn it on because it shows that my iphone does not have any battery left. When i plug it in the computer/charge it, it turns on and shows 100%. It has never happened to me before and it just randomly had this problem today. Please help.

This is most likely faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

File and print sharing keep turning off

I have a thinkpad SL510 with Win Pro installed and for some reason the File and Print sharing checkbox for the Ethernet adapter keeps turning off after I reboot or restart the computer...What do you have to do to prevent this from happening?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

downsct, welcome to the forum,
are you using Access Connections by any chance?
There is a setting in Access Connections which can influence file and printer sharing. If you look at the profile's further settings, there is an entry for network security, file and printer sharing needs to be activated.
I think this is a great feature of AC as it will override the windows settings, you can choose to allow or block in each profile; e.g. allowed at home, but blocked at the Airport or Hotel.
Hope this helps

MacBook keeps turning off on start up

My problems started when I kept getting this Hal.dll error msg on starting up my MacBook pro, which I understand is a windows file since I at one time needed windows XP on my MacBook to run a certain program.
When I realized I no longer needed Windows, I started (foolishly?) deleting any and all windows files I saw in my applications folder. I Now realize that probably wasnt a good idea. Ever since doing that, i'd get the above error message when I turned my comp on.
I finally got past this by restarting in safe mode. This worked ONCE, when my ext drive wasn't handy.
When I tried restarting again in safe mode later at home, the computer now keeps turning itself off !!!
Now I get the apple icon, the spinning wheel, the status bar slowly filling, and then it all disappears and the screen goes black and the computer turns off.
I have tried numerous times with power + shift (safe), power + option (which shows me the mac hd volume, but when I select it will still turn off), power + option+D, and power + shift +s > fsck -fy > reboot and after all of these attempts the computer still just turns off.
At this pt I just want to get that desktop back one more time to make sure I have the files I want on my ext drive and move on.
Anyone out there have any ideas or advice on how to could get past the computer always turning off on me on start up?

This sounds like the same thing that has been happening to both my Macbook and Macbook Pro. Some others sound like they have similar problems. This is what I posted in the Macbook Pro area regarding the same symptoms. This is discouraging. These computers are expensive and they should have the bugs worked out better than this.

I wonder if I have similar problems. I have both a Macbook Pro 15" and a Macbook 13"
1st my macbook started shutting itself off unexpectedly. It got more and more frequent. I have done several fixes including: archive and install, sending it in to have a logic board replaced, downloading an updated disc utility repair, and sending it in to have a power component replaced. Now I will be sending it in for a third time and I think they will replace the Macbook machine if this repair doesn't work.
Now my Macbook Pro is doing the same thing. I have had it for about 6 months and it was running fine until now. I ran the exact same software on my 12 G-4 powerbook without any problems. One of the computer people at work said it sounds like a power problem. It happens whether it is running AC or on battery power and doesnt seem to matter what I am doing.
I am waiting for the macbook to be fixed before I address the Macbook Pro because I dont want to have both of my computers in the shop at the same time.
Any suggestions? This seems totally unacceptable for two new expensive computers.

Why does my iPod keep turning off by itself

why does my ipod touch keep turning off by itself?

Is it running hot? There are thermal limits that will shut it down.
As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
You are now in a perfect position to do a
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.
