9 years ago Either your overheating or your power supply cannot handle the load, most
likely. Get lmsensors and check your temps while running pyrit.Original comment by haykey...@gmail.com on 23 Nov 2011 at 11:03

9 years ago Yes your problem is probably overheating, when the cpu get past a preset
threshold, the motherboard simply shutdown the computer to protect itself.
haykay maybe right too about tinking that the power supply may not handle the
load, as you use the 3 core+a cuda card.
Solution #1:Shutdown your computer, open it and take a look a the cpu heatsink,
if he is full of dust, then your problem is simply that the airflow is too
restricted. Remove it and clean it. This is the cause #1 of overheating.
Solution #2: Does your computer is inside a desk or something like? If yes, you
may need to get it out so the fan will not blow hot air trying to cool itself.
Solution #3: If you overclocked your cpu, the 2 problem may rise. Downclock it
or buy bigger heatsink. The psu may not handle the load, buy a bigger one.
Solution #4: Buy yourself a bigger power supply. If you have a "general usage"
power supply that is only 300-350Watt, this is surely your problem. With a
triple core and a cuda card, a 450-500Watt will be able to handle even the more
intensive load. I have a 500Watt for my dual core, 2 cuda card, 4 hdd, and he
handle it. (That depend on which card you have, count 75Watt/6Pin
connector+75Watt for the main connector, this will give you the total wattage
you need only for the card.)
Finally, if you have done all the 4 solution and the computer continue to
shutdown alone, take a look at the capacitors on the motherboard(they look like
small batteries), if the top is not flat(and have a convex shape), or you
notice a brown tick liquid that goes out of the top, then the electrolytic
capacitors of your motherboard are gone! If you have done some electronic work,
and you know what you do, then find new capacitors that have exactly the same
rating (same voltage(Normally 6.3Volt), and same capacitance(Normally between
1000uF and 3300uF). After that completely strip your computer to have the
motherboard, unsolder the old caps, and solder ther new one. This will resolve
the problem. If you're not sure about your soldering skills, bring it to a
electronic repair shop, and tell them to change the caps that are broken only.
So i hope you will find your problem!!Original comment by mikael.l...@gmail.com on 1 Dec 2011 at 7:44

9 years ago Oh... Sorry i didn't saw this: "#1: 'CUDA-Device #1 'GeForce """315M"""'':
988.2 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)"
If you try to do this on a laptop, then i'm pretty sure that he overheat.
Almost all the laptop i've seen in my hole life are not adequately cooled. And
they are a PITA to clean. You can try to buy a laptop cooler, a fan that will
blow air on the bottom of the laptop, this will cool it a little bit more, but
i'm not sure that this will do the job... I can't help you... Sorry!Original comment by mikael.l...@gmail.com on 1 Dec 2011 at 7:50

9 years ago also taking your cpu/gpu cooler off and removing that crappy poor conducting
garbage that the manufacturer uses between the cpu and heatsink, and replace
with some decent performance thermal compound, arctic silver etc. I usually get
a 5C-10C temperature reduction by doing this alone. I recommend everyone do it.Original comment by MrNicho...@gmail.com on 4 Apr 2012 at 3:42
