hi guys/girls im having a problem with my computer any help would be great.

every single time i take an xvid and try to convert it to a dvd my computer turns off about 10 mins into convert. no matter what program i use nero, vso, dvdsanta,it shuts off. at 1st i didnt put 2 and 2 together and thought it was the power supply, so i got a new one and since i dont convert xvids to dvds offten the problem in my mind was fixed (power supply)well a few days ago i tried to convert a xvid and it shut off so i turned it back on tried another proggy with the same results. im starting to think its my cpu or ram right now i got a pen d @ 2.7 and 1 gb of ram (patriot ram) and i beleave a msi mb. has anybody ever had the problem? if so what were the results?

thanks for any help!

Could your machine be overheating?

not sure only happens when i convert xvid2dvd

Run Everest while your converting and watch your temps.

will do ty

Dollars to donuts it's the software involved in the conversion process.
A faulty PSU or overheating scenario wouldn't be picky enough to wait for a specific software app to trigger.

k i ran a proggy called speedfan 4.???
temps read like this.

temp1 65
" " 2 55
" " 3 55

i ran nero to convert xvid to dvd

temps1 85
" " 2 65
" " 3 55

turned off

this was after 10 min

Those temps look ok, try a different converter, I'd recommend WinAVIVideoConverter.
