Win 7 shuts down by itself

Hi

Got a issue

My Window 7 Pro 64bit machine keeps on shutting down by itself.

I have tried the following

1. Checked power settings
2. Checked PSU
3. Checked fans working
4. Checked Temps (all fine)
5. Checked voltages for PSU (okay)
6. Full virus scans

The pc has no set time, does it when it wants. It just says the message - Windows will shut down in a minute..and it starts closing my running programs and shuts itself. It never BSOD and i have no errors in the logs.

Anyone got any ideas i can look at to sort this out, i will make sure eveything is seated correctly however i think its windows related as it always tells me it is going to shut down. It also seems to do it when im not using it, however programs are running (routerstats etc).

Download this, update to latest definitions and give it a scan.

even if you've ran malwarebytes, trust me, do it. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22458190-SuperAntiSpyware-vs-MalwareBytes-free-versions

You'll need to add a drive letter to each drive in Disk Management in order for them to be seen in Explorer.
