Computer shuts off automatically
 

Recently I restored my PC to what it was when I purchased it, I have gone
through all the power settings, even in the bios. I have all the critical
updates for windows also. Ever since I restored my computer, when it is idle
for over and hour or more when I come back, the computer is completely shut
down. When I turn it on, it loads up like normal. Any idea what is causing
this?

Try this: Go to your Control Panel then go to your Power Options. Then on
your Settings for Always On power scheme make sure where it says Turn off
monitor that its set on NEVER. See if that helps.

well first off, like I said I've already gone through all the power options
and second, it's not just the monitor that's shutting down, my entire system
is.

Hi,

Are all your cooling fans running full speed, including the one in your
power supply?

Yes, all the fans are working. I don't know if there is an error msg when it
shuts down, since I'm not at the computer when it does it, it's only doing it
when it's been idle for a while.
