    ok i just started to experience random shutdowns and its annoying i was wondering what could cause it. ive had previous problems and as i type this im worried it will shutdown again. um i have had either a bad hard drive or overheating causeing it to shut down so i went and got another 80gig and am using it now. i also got fans to hopefully cure heat problems. i also cleaned it out completely nothing was hit with static as far as i know cause it all would have from what i hear. im mainly using it for games and am really tired of it shutting down in the middle of a guild war mission.

    And what configuration of hardware do you have?
    It can be related with different reasons.
    What about your video card?
    I couldn't understand it for a long time but I had the same problem when one capacitor perished on it.
    Try also to compare your game System requirements with your system.

    Good luck!

    You mentioned overheating, you're not overclocking, are you?
    Otherwise could be many things, bad memory, malfunctioning hardware/video card, wrong version of drivers...

    Check to see if there are any error messages (and check event viewer).
