    does it just turn itself off just like that? Or initiates a shutdown sequence? Check your windows error logs to see exactly what happened. Post the error here. Other than that try reflashing to the latest bios and test if it does it alone on battery only. Can be the ac adapter causes a short at a certain level.. lets eliminate that problem immediately by testing it out.
