So the problem i hope to get some help with is as follows.
Whenever i step away from the computer (an aging G73JH) for a little while, it will show a black screen when i return. Hit the power button and it turns off at once, booting to the same black screen. Get into bios and i see the boot order has changed to the other HDD with no OS. Change the boot-order to the SSD disk, save/quit and it boots up into windows again.
I installed a new SSD and a new HDD about a year ago after some other troubles i had. Is my SSD disk already dying? Do i have gremlins in my pc? Im trying to download Torchlight 2, but when i go for a beer tired of waiting and such the pc might just shut down and i have to restart.

what bios and vbios version are you running?
-
I followed all the recipies on this site when i put in the new disks, so if im not remembering wrong it should be 93vbiosa and bios 213. The pc has functioned very well since i did that a year ago, and i cant think of anything i have done to make it hickup on me now. I started playing Torchlight 2 earlier tonight, and a good halfhour into it suddenly the sound went bananas and soon after it shut down. Shows a blue screen with some writing on but it shuts down so fast i cant read it.

bluescreenview? anything noted in your event viewer?

I did not know about the eventviewer, thanks hax. I found out it was something strange with the SSD, and appearantly it had a bug which surfaced after 5000 hours causing it to reboot every now and then.. a quick fix from crucial and i hope everything is back to normal.
Strange behaviour, crashing, changing boot order.
