When I am watching videos on YouTube or Rumble my computer will shut down and I have to reboot and resume and many times the computer will shut down again. Why!

I am using Windows 7 with Edge.

Thanks!

    Hi Ben,

    I tried to pause/watch videos and I am still getting shut down. I went to a site and it had text and Youtube and rumble videos on it I did nothing and it shut down. First time for that. I check all of my emails on my server, and only let the keepers download to my computer. So I keep my computer cleaner.

    Should this have any bearing on the problem?

    Thanks!

    Hi CARRMAS -

    Thanks for the update. I see, it's a weird problem on your end, I apologize but it seems that I ran out of ideas, maybe someone has a better resolve.

    Regards,

    Jerico T.

    Hi Jerico,

    Re: method 3

    If I am correct, it looks like I have only one driver to select.

    Re: shut downs

    When I pause a video for an extended time, it does not shut down on all of them, just some of them. Weird for sure!!!!

    Thanks!

    Hi Ben,

    I have been having this problem for a couple of weeks, I have never used the other browsers.

    My previous reply to Jerico, mentioned examples.

    I can leave my computer on for hours, and it will not shut down. But if I pause a video and leave it, it will shut down!

    I still have the issue!

    Thanks for both of you!
