Hi,

Does it power down? Or is it freezing? Powering down without prompting is
often a system reaction to a physical problem, this may be set in the system
BIOS. It could be a hardware problem, or the BIOS settings are incorrect for
the hardware (a common mistake by those who try to overclock the system). If
it is just suddenly freezing, then shutting off (or not), then the problem
is likely a hardware fault.
