Android Studio : Shutdown Ubuntu 15.10

Question

Hi I have recently Ubuntu 15.10 installed in my PC. My PC get shut downs after indexing android studio project. Whenever I create new project or import another project, At the time of indexing my PC get shutdown. I thought it might be memory issue. So I added 8 GB RAM in PC. I had same issue earlier so I formatted My PC. again installed Ubuntu and android studio, still I am facing same problem.

I have also tried to close application which consume much memory and only launched android studio still it shut downs my PC. I am unable to understand how to solve this. This is twice I have reinstalled O.S.

Your PC could be overheating. You could try checking the CPU temperature when you launch Android Studio. — Firearrow5235, Apr 01 '16 at 05:32
After checking CPU temperature. I got this readings `k10temp-pci-00c3` `Adapter: PCI adapter` `temp1: +77.4°C (high = +70.0°C)` — Ashish Kudale, Apr 01 '16 at 05:43

Check whether your cpu cooling fan is working properly. Because this could be due to overheating of the CPU. For that you can use lm-sensor which is availble in software center for temperature sensing. In addition Ubuntu 15.10 is not a stable version, it is the daily build of ubuntu. Try installing the stable ubuntu upto now which is Ubuntu 14.04. you can download it from here. Choose the architecture which fits your computer. If your computer is a new one, sure it is 64bit. Download ubuntu 14.04 and once it is finished, before installing android-studio, update the operating system as there are lot of update released for it. Then try installing latest android-studio again. it is better if you install android-studio in a linux based partition which is any partition with ext4 file format.Try above and let me know what happen.

First check the CPU temperature using `lm-sensor` at idle state of the system – Kasun Siyambalapitiya Apr 01 '16 at 05:50
once it is installed run `sudo sensors-detect` in `terminal`. Then it will ask your permission to add what it finds to `/etc/modules`. Say 'yes' to all. After it is finished, run `sensors` in `terminal` to get `CPU Temperature` – Kasun Siyambalapitiya Apr 01 '16 at 05:54
`k10temp-pci-00c3` `Adapter: PCI adapter` `temp1: +70.0°C (high = +70.0°C)` at idle state. – Ashish Kudale Apr 01 '16 at 05:55
your `CPU fan `is not working bro, you can see that it is at its max. Check is there any blow from the ventilation if this a laptop – Kasun Siyambalapitiya Apr 01 '16 at 05:58
to make sure that it is overheating install `psensor` from `software center` it is graphical software so that you can see it easily. and check the temperature mentioned in `physical id` ( it is your CPU). If your temperature rise above `105 C` your processor will die, so immediately replace your `fan` or service your `fan`( Which is not usually done, as replacing is easy) – Kasun Siyambalapitiya Apr 01 '16 at 06:02
I think This might be issue. I feel the heat when I touch outside my cabinet panel. – Ashish Kudale Apr 01 '16 at 06:03
At the 3% CPU usage. temperature reaching above 72.0 C – Ashish Kudale Apr 01 '16 at 06:07
Sure it is the case, when you run `android-studio` your `processor` gets overheated and to prevent it from `dieing` computer gets shutdown. Replace the fan immediately. – Kasun Siyambalapitiya Apr 01 '16 at 06:08

Hi check your RAM slots properly because when 4+4 ram's when you add ,The sharing of memory would be the problem because same thing happened for need check whether to RAM'S belongs to same manufacturer or different check your RAM Usage when opening or creating new project or creating new project.and check your both RAM'S CLOCK SPEED SHOULD BE SAME
