For some reason my new Surface is shutting off randomly. I check the setting and a few other things but it's still randomly turns off without warning. I'm losing some of my school work because of it. Is anyone else having this problem?

I'm also having this issue more recently. The first little while I didn't seem to have a problem, I think the first two times it happened I thought I had hit some kind of a key or hotkey I wasn't aware of to send it into hibernate/sleep, but this now happens randomly whether I'm using the Surface Pro or not.
I have very few programs installed, i5 256GB version. I only have the typecase as an accessory. I haven't experienced much overheating when performing normal processes, however I do play one videogame and it does get warm (but this is understandable), a little on the hot side, but does not appear to effect performance or cause any shutdowns. Most recently, I've been using my surface for a presentation and it shut off/slept twice without any immediate interaction, but not long enough time to justify an automatic sleep.
Bryan,
Is there any way that we users encountering this issue can provide data to help speed up the investigation?
Contrary to my previous report, the Hardware troubleshooter did not resolve this problem for me.
