No Paul they are in different places and different countries *smile*. There is nothing wrong with the power supply there is something on the desk top and something on the lap top triggering the machine to go off.

To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, June 25, 2011 1:55 AM Subject: [vip_students] Two Electrical Type Problems I have a desk top computer. A new fault over the past 3 days, it will suddenly and for no apparent reason turn itself off!!! At first it was happening on Internet and e-mail but tonight it started when I was reading a long word document. Any ideas on this one please? The second problem relates to a lap top. It's problem is that if I plug in a USB keyboard this triggers the lap top to turn off. It is not possible to power on again for nearly 24 hours!!!!
