Computer shutting down?

Hasn't done this before, only thing I've done to this comp lately is fix a windows error by using a windows xp disk(wasnt mine, was a mates that he dled), which I doubt was that because all I did was boot off it then it was fixed? :/ Any ideas?

This happens at random?

If you had a friend on your computer, then ask him. This is a simple hack a friend can put on your computer and disguise it as any icon, or just set it to do so at random intervals. It could also be a major system malfunction lol

My guess is this, part of your system 32(your operating system)has either been corrupted from your harddrive being turned off wrong, or a virus has corrupted it. I would try repairing windows with the windows installation disk.

After you do that, i would run a virus scan before startup because if it is a virus and it has infected your os, then that is really the only way to delete it.

Then after that if it wasnt a virus, do a boot sector check.
