Your PC could be overheating. Shut it down, clear it of dust with compressed air. Boot it up and make sure all fans are working properly. If it continues to shut down leave the case open and arrange a fan to blow air through it. Should this solve the problem you need to install another fan. If not the next thing to check is your ram, if it is bad you can get the same problem.


Good Luck,
