Welcome Kakihara!

You probably have a virus, have you checked / scanned your computer thouroughly? If not i would advise you to do so.

Please download System Mechanics from iolo.com and run full system scan as well as full system maintenance. Let me know how your system performs once you test the evaluation version of system mechanics pro

Check to see if your computer is over heating. Although, most newer systems will tell you about this after you start your PC again. If System Mechanics can't find a problem, it could be a faulty CPU. A faulty CPU can cause your computer to randomly reboot.

Default sounds like over heat to me

yep sounds like is over heating ... not very likely a virus will do that to your pc .. they want your pc to be on so they can fuk it up. Get some fans in there and also open the bugger up and give it a good clean out with a soft paint brush and the hoover.

bad memory could also be a cause, once you've rulled out overheating. It seems heat is a very common issue atm, even with larger suppliers!
