In the middle of doing....stuff...just playing around on my computer...

it suddenly shut itself off...and started making an annoying 2 toned beeping sound....

This lasted for about 5 minutes.

I unplugged a few things from it...(not sure what yet...but not the main printer for sure..)....but still it beeped...

And it wouldn't turn back on.  I resorted to hitting the power strip, but that did nothing...still it beeped...

I unplugged the power source a few times directly from the back...and about the third time it quit.

I finished my cereal (I didn't want it to get soggy)...then plugged the main power back in...

And it started up fine.

Computer doesn't feel overly hot or appear to have acquired any nasty things...

However, I'm going to turn off the computer for the night...all the way off.  And give it a bit of a rest....

And after Xmas, I'm going to go out and buy....something or a lot of somethings to get all my photo files and stuff backed up

This computer will be 4 years old in April...and I am getting fearful of what may lie ahead...

Please tell me it was just my computer acting a little crazy from overuse of late....

computer, fears, uhoh...
