Post a screenshot of speedfan or some other utility, showing your system's temperature while runing a game. Does it happen only while running games or while doing anything intensive?

It could be a temperature problem.
Post a screen shot using hwinfo

op- I said post a screenshot of 'speedfan' not 'fan speed'. Speedfan is a pc temperature monitoring tool.
Download speedfan (google it), install it, run game, minimize the game, open speedfan and take a screenshot and post it.
Also, try running prime95 (stress test utility) and report if the system still shuts down.

sounds like cpu overheating issue ... anyway, what's the cpu temp in bios ?
