My PC is currently turning on and off by itself. There is no rhyme or reason and I am unsure what could be the problem. When it does shut down it does a "true" shutdown with the windows screen and all, almost as if I did it manually. It does NOT just go black and die. Similarly it will wake itself up after shutting itself down after an independent period of time. I have found the only way to shut it down for the night is to use the physical button at the top of the pc. I have tried turning the psu off and unplugging it as well as connecting the pc to a different power strip. It does appear to happen when I am playing games, but there is no graphical or gameplay issues before shutdown. The time varies as well, sometimes I make it 2 hours into a game and sometimes 15 mins.I am thinking about upgrading pretty soon so it's not a total loss, but if I could pinpoint the likely part that is causing the issues maybe I could salvage some. Thx senpai.

>>1552947As a note the PC shut off during non- gaming as well.>>1552950I'm super well versed in event viewer,but the only thing that looked out of place/ right after a shutdown was this "Kernel-PnP The driver \Driver\WudfRd failed to load for the device HID\VID_0951&PID_16A4&MI_03&Col02\7&4ee76dd&0&0001."
