Check your temps
Check your ram (www.memtest86.org)

When PCs over-heat, they shut down to prevent damage. Make sure you CPU and system temps are okay.

When was the last time you did a format and reinstall?

Thanks for some of the help guys

I have checked my systems temp and it stays around 39C

Running Memtest will tell you if it's your RAM or not.
