Posted on October 9, 2025 By CampusTimesNG No Comments on How Do I Fix a Desktop Computer That Keeps Restarting?

In the case where the fan runs and stops repeatedly, it?s seemingly something beyond computer virus and so you seemingly do not need a virus protection at this point, this is because you do not even have access to the computer?s windows operating system yet, so something else must be done.

It is now time to open the desktop computer, before you do this, kindly unplug the computer and disable it from any power source, let me say this with experience, the possible reason why your computer may keep restarting is Overheating, hold on, I know you would say your PC is always in an open area for ventilation, I will tell you why I say its overheating.

Once the Central Processing Unit (CPU) is not getting enough flow of air, there is a greater likelihood it will get overheated.? The moment you turn on a system unit, and ?it goes into the operating system, its temperature gets high, the major reason I mentioned fan, its work is to keep the PC?s temperature normal, even with the fan, there is still a high tendency your PC will still get overheat,

This is the work of no other evil than ?Dust?, Dust has caused a lot of havoc not only to our computers alone but both our office and home appliances, At this point, I will strongly recommend a routine servicing for your computer.

It?s time for a PC clean up. Get your paper towel and q-tips. Have your magnetic strip handy, or if you don’t have a magnetic strip, touch the power supply to ground yourself from any electromagnetic shock.

Get your q-tips and clean the Dust off your CPU fan. The air is not going through to the CPU, that’s why the computer shuts it self down, so that the computer would not catch on fire. Clean every hole on the computer case, make sure its clear for air to enter. Your CPU fan should look like the picture.

Clean all dust off of the computer case. Once you are done, close the computer and plug everything back in. Start your PC is it should load up. If non of this worked, you must open the computer case again and make sure all the Divers are plug in securely.
