Computer Turns off for no Reason

Hi guys,

 

Sorry if this is the wrong forum section. I left my computer on overnight to download BF3 (got it for 7 quid on gamersgate), It said it had about 7 hours left because origin is shit and all that. So i woke up this morning to find my computer at the log on screen of windows, After logging on, what seems to have happened is that the computer restarted for no apparent reason. This happened before when I was uploading a YouTube video, so I removed the overclock because i thought it was a stability issue, but clearly this is not the case. Is it some update thing or what? My computer is always on for very long periods of time and is rarely turned off. 

 

Any ideas what's up?

Has it happened again while you were using it? An update is def the biggest possibility. This should probably be in "Troubleshooting" section. If this hasn't happened since then who cares? Comp still runs right? Try leaving it on again and see if it happens

Probably one of those great and useful updates that bug you until your restart your pc yourself or it does it for you out of goodness of its heart<3

I can't really test while it's just idly doing something, but I'll be on pretty much all day. I'll see what happens. I checked and there aren't any updates. It is still running, so it's fine, it's just a massive hassle to upload videos sometimes.
