Every time I try to go on the computer, it stays on for about 10-15 minutes, then it says logging off and shuts down. I check for spyware, but none found. After it automaticaly shuts down about 2 times, I try to turn it on, but it wont start. The light with the picture of a battery under it on the front of the processor isn't lighting up anymore. I have a Compaq Presario 6000. How can I fix this problem?

It can be a cooling problem. The processor's fan might not be working

there are some opportunities causing this. One determination is, that your pc is contaminated with a plague. you've scanned for secret agent ware, yet do you actually have a virusscanner operating? the different determination is, that there is part of your pc malfunctioning. the major indicator the following is how the pc shuts down. in case you get a message declaring some thing like: this pc is shutting down, and there is a counter counting right down to 0, it is probably a plague. you could cancel the shutdown progression by using clicking commence - Run and kind "shutdown -a" (without the costs) interior the field, folllewed by using enter. which will cancel the shutdown progression and furnish you with an chance to position in or replace your virusscanner and test your pc for viruses. There are some good free virusscanners obtainable. AVG from Grisoft is a good get mutually. If the show screen unexpectedly turns black, hardware failure is maximum probably. this can be extra sturdy to hint, and, reckoning on the age of the pc, may no longer also be truly worth your even as.

ok, right click on my computer ( right clicking brings up a menu) select properties from the bottom of the menu, then select "tools" tab. once you do this select the first option to check disk or scan disk. you will be prompted to restart your computer. do so, then allow the scan to run on the restart -- it will happen before your computer logs onto windows. this will tell you if your hard drive is failing or not. and also make sure to check the boxes to correct any errors found (check them both). any other trouble give the experts at yto.ca a call. they can help you, its a paid tech support service
also my own computer auto shut down when my cpu fan died, then i wouldn't be able to turn it on, when able to start it next watch the screen closely it should tell you the system temperature

sounds like a bad battery, you will need to replace it
