Extensive description of context.
Mar 21, 2011 at 13:15 comment added Alain Sometimes, before launching into a full, methodical problem solving approach, you should attempt a sweep of common low-hanging fruit: Run a full spyware scan, search the windows log for unexpected shutdowns and see what (if any) problems preceded it, check the disk space situation, run check disk, give Sysinternal's Autoruns a quick scan for unfamiliar/suspicious software. Have a simple set of tools to run which can quickly identify a large variety of hardware and software issues. If they find nothing, you've wasted little time and can commence a more thorough process.
