Recently, my computer has been shutting down randomly. It seems like a heat problem, because it shuts off with no warning. It doesn't say "Windows is shutting down", it just stops. Ill be in the middle of doing something, and it just goes black, and turns off. If anyone has any idea as to what might be wrong, help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys, - GingerIsWin

check your core temps, make sure your tower has good air flow. disable any overclocks/fsb hacks, and maybe add a couple more fans...

Yeah first check the fans, probably plugged.
Maybe run a hardware diagnostics.

Maybe give us some more info?

Unlikely dust is the issue.
