So, the button on my computer is starting to go, I think. As such, I decided to not turn off my computer and just log off instead. I asked some techie type at work and he said that should be fine. Weird thing is that my computer was off this morning, not just logged off. I do the log off thing with my laptop and it works fine.

This ever happen to anyone? (Where you don't turn off your computer yet it shuts off on its own?)

I apologize once more for dumbass questions.

Eh, in case you need specs:
Windows XP
Media Center Edition, Version 2, Service Pack 2
AMD Athlon ™ 63 Processor
3400+
2.39 GHz, 1.00 GB of Ram
Yes I know my computer sucks.

It's either your power settings or the power button's wire is getting loose.

Also... if you don't mind payin a lil extra on the electricity, leave your PC on at all times, just log off and log back on. This will prevent wear and tear.
