So my Packard Bell ''All in one'' keeps closing down.
I get an on screen notification that it is receiving no signal and then the world goes dark! Sometimes, like now, I can fire it up again..
It's been suggested to me that this might be a virus.
Any thoughts?
It has been going on randomly for a few months but has got much worse recently.
I am a technophobe so need guidance in words of one syllable.

Overheating perhaps?
Can you check if all the fans spin freely by switching it off and giving them a flick with your fingers?
Maybe a bit of a hoover with a soft brush to clear any dust...

Could have sworn I'd replied to you all... The problem seems to have rectified itself after a suck out by the hoover and a comprehensive scan, plus a fiddle with everything connected to the PC. I don't know what worked though! I'm sure I'm grateful to all of you for your advice, and to one of you that told me how to solve my problem.... Lynda
