I have only had this computer a couple of months, but
lately the computer will just decide to shut down by
itself. I have lost some work becasue of this and it is
a huge pain. If anyone can help me solve this matter, it
would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi,

Have you checked your Event Logs, to try to see what might be causing this
problem.
To check it out, go to Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools ->
Event Viewer

Check the System and the Application section for any items that might look
to be the cause.
 
My son-in-law recently had the same problem, said he had a bad RAM chip.
Replaced his RAM and his computer no long shuts down on it's own.
