Hello and welcome to Techspot!

First thing you'll want to check is your CPU temperatures. If it gets too hot, your system will automatically turn itself off to prevent permanent damage. Sounds like this could be your problem.

Download and install this software:

And let us know what kind of temperatures you are hitting, as well as what your CPU is. Pentium? Athlon? What speed is it?

I have checked Temperature of my PC and its clear normal.
I tried to find some thing in BIOS that could automaticaly turn my pc off I cant. There isnt any.
The temperature inside of case is really cool, so any other thoughts?

My Temperature is hitting approximetly 25-35C
My Pc parameter:
Celeron 600Mhz
RAM 64

Ive tried to change my power unit, but the result was the same, so point is not in it.
Now Im trying to remove my LAN card and see how long it will be working without rebooting.

Also in the meantime boot into safemode, go to Control Panel/System/Advanced/Startup and Recovery and uncheck automatically re-boot on errors...

make shure your connections are tight. and that your power supply can provide enough power.

I have a similar problem to yours.I formatted my pc and from there he would automatically reboot and then then turn off straight away.I tried to format again but it just got worse,I wasn't even able to complete the format and now my pc barely even turns on.When it does turn on the green light on the pc box does appear leaving my screen black all the time.I need serious help.

your PSU could be failing

your PSU could be failing

That or you are not on a UPS...
You need for a 600mhz PC at least 300 watts PS inside, and a nice uninterruptable, sustained Power Supply on the outside. If your pc is hooked either straight into the wall or into one of those power strips, any surges/spikes/lags from your electric company, slight as they can be, can cause a shutdown.

Now don't tell me you guys running it off a generator, lol...
