Shuts down after you boot up

[bluedos82]

OS: Win 2K

Computer boots like normal and then you log in.
It will stay on for about 5 mins after and then it shuts down automaticly.
Ideas?

Are there any illuminating error messages/warnings in you event logs? Check the logs with Event Viewer (in your Administative Tools).

Overheating, or a failing component can cause unexpected shutdowns/restarts. In the case of a hardware failure, bad RAM is often a culprit.
