Does the inside of the case appear very hot when it shuts down? Put a house fan blowing on your CPU with the side of the case off and see if that makes it stay on longer.

If you can get it to stay on a few, then download and use Sensorview Pro to check the temps, or if you have an onboard program, use that to check temps. Here is a link to SensorView Pro:

Welcome
Do as Tumble advised with sensor view.
Is this a laptop?
If not, give us the specs of your equipment, and the info on the side of the power supply.
