Hey
My computer has been shuting on and off and i cant use it anymore. I have to unplug the power for a while and when i turn it on it would stay on for not more than an hour than shut off, and once it shuts off it starts by itself again but shuts off after couple seconds and it repeats. Im not sure if its the computer or if theres a virus becuase there are ads poping up and i keep geting errors. any help is much apriciated
