Inappropriate Shutdown

Guest

My desktop computer has for the last week or so automatically shut itself
off. We will leave it on, walk away, and when we return a couple of hours
later, the computer has shut itself down. So far, no one in my family has
noticed any error messages signaling why the computer is shutting down. I
checked the power settings to see if it was automatically set to shut off
after a certain amount of time but it appears that it is set up to never
shutdown on its own. If anyone has any ideas why this is happening and how
to fix it, that would be great! Thanks!

Check Event Viewer for errors.
