| Computer shuts down Since I put Vista on my computer it will close down anytime I'm away from it for a little while. I have to click my mouse and it comes up with a black screen saying it closed down to protect my computer. The next screen asks for you to choose which Windows you are using and then the next whether to come back up normally or in safe mode. It always comes back up fine and is ok until I don't use it for awhile and it goes back down. This is really annoying and happens all day long. I'm also getting an error message in my Outlook everytime I try to replly or forward about a fax extension. I would really like to either get this fixed or go back to XP. Is the only way to go back to restore your computer to factory? -- Kat |

| Re: Computer shuts down Thanks so much John. I went to that url and did what it said and then went away from the computer for awhile and when I came back it was still up so we shall see but I think this did it.
