It's happened twice in the last 24 hours. Once at my parents' house yesterday afternoon, once this morning in my apartment. The only common link between the two instances was that I was playing Minecraft at the time of the reboot (and both my worlds got completely erased, but that's another topic entirely). I was playing the game, the screen went black, and all of a sudden my computer was rebooting itself.
Any thoughts on why it might do this? My laptop does get a little warm sometimes, but it was no warmer than usual yesterday when it happened.
Could it be overheating? That was my first thought, but it doesn't entirely add up. I got my laptop in fall 2006, so I've had it for almost five years. The battery has never been changed, so I'm wondering it that could be the issue. On that note, however, I always have my laptop plugged into an outlet with the AC adapter.
So, what might be causing the issue? Overheating? Battery issues? Minecraft? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I'm completely computer illiterate. :crazy:
