Could it possibly be a heat problem as magtec suggested? I took off the side panel and it seemed to run a fair bit longer. And it wouldn't black out own with the side off. I noticed that there are no additional fans installed on the machine. There is just the PSU fan, HSF, CPU fan, and video card fan. Maybe it is shutting down due to a heat problem?

It makes sense, because after leaving it a minute or so, it will load up again nicely. And it does appear to work better with the side off. Maybe I should have the intake/outake fans put in. (They didn't come with the system).

Can anyone verify my theory?

Thanks
