I've been having problems with random shutdowns. The PC will freeze then either just hang indefinitely or, sometimes it will shut down and reboot at random.
On bootup or reboot it has a habit of either freezing completely again or restarting the bootup. I've disconnected and reconnected every bit of hardware I have and been through all the software I have connected to see if anything there is to blame.
There doesn't seem to be any common theme to the times at which it freezes - it has happened when I've been looking at websites and also when I've simply been working on Word documents.
