Riok,

The computer is shutting off pretty soon aftet it is
turned on. If it was a heat issue wouldn't ther be an

Only if the issue was the cpu running too hot.

Could be a number of things, if it's just shutting down

after a certain amount of time, it may be a hardware-

Could you be more specific?
