Every-time after I type my password to log into Windows my computer immediately shuts off. Can somebody help me?

What operating system?

What are the PC specs? (Ninja'ed by OP)

Did you just type the password and it shut off, or did you hit enter.

Is your PC new or old? Does it need cleaning? (overheating?)

 

Sorry to answer with questions.......

ouch, check your temps...something is maybe overheating?

i would check the CPU cooler make sure it's properly installed with thermal paste etc..

I also noticed my CPU was in the mid 40s in the BIOS

is it an old install of windows, or have you installed it fresh on a new drive?

I thought the same but 40c in bios ain't bad.

depends how long he's been in there...maybe by the time windows booted etc. it could reach shut down temps...he's not responding anymore so he probably figured it :D
