    Anyone had a similar issue while watching a dvd or bluray over hdmi to an external monitor?
    I have mine connected to a pioneer kuro at 720p and also 1080 and it will shut down after approx 1 hour.
    No BSOD or error messages.
    After restarting it will do the same however next time much quicker.

    Looks like a hardware issue.
    I have replaced the hard drive,RAm and installed 6 different operating systems with same results.XP, Vista and Seven and their 64bit cousins...
    Used 3 different HDMI cables.
