My computer shuts down unexpectedly...no warnings no error messages. I just installed Windows 7 successfully and it shut down after a few minutes online. Sometimes it shuts down after 2 or 3 minutes, sometimes longer. I was hoping it was a virus, so I did a clean install with Windows 7. Looks like that didn't help. Could it be the hard drive? Is there any way to troubleshoot what the problem could be? Could something inside the computer be loose? Any help would be really appreciated!

2012-11-13T17:55:15+00:00 My computer is new. HP Pavilion desktop. After 5- 10 minutes it goes to log in screen. I have spent hours with HP tech support to no avail. I have changed all of my power option settings to "Never". I'd like to try cleaning the inside out, but am clueless as to how to do that and which side the fan is on etc. In one of the previous posts, is there a link to do it step by step?? I have an HP Pavilion Desktop with Windows 7. Thankyou.
