Vc pode dar uma olhada em três ítens cara: a) A fonte do seu computador está sobrecarregada ou com problema. Neste caso ela não está conseguindo manter a força correta para os componentes do sistema. b) Memórias com mal contato podem provocar isso. Se vc tiver eslotes extras na placa, troque os pentes de lugar e veja se para de sair. c) O processador está aquecendo acima do recomendado. Neste caso ele desliga automaticamente para se proteger. Já tite este tipo de problema com o ítem A e B. Boa sorte.
