Look in Reliability History and Event Viewer for error codes, warnings, or even informational events that correspond with the occurring restarts.

Start with Reliability History. Much more user friendly and the timeline format can be very helpful.

Event Viewer take more effort to understand and apply so take the time to figure it out some.

Look for patterns and errors.

In either case, you can right click any given error for more information and details. However the presented information can be cryptic and/or confusing.

Google any given error codes but do not immediately start applying some offered "fixes" such as downloads, utilities, etc..

Some such things will appear no matter what problem(s) you are researching.

Hi thanks so much for the resposne, I have viewed event viewer and Reliability Monitor and i have found Event LOG 6008 the previous system shutdown was unexpected which doesnt provide much information, and I have found a WHEA-Logger Event ID 18 error, which occurs around 30 seconds before the shutdown report error which has the following text.
A fatal hardware error has occurred.

From Searching this error it seems to report as a problem between the communication of the processer and the motherboard. Do you know of any way I could possibly test to see which part is at fault or would I need a spare motherboard or CPU to properly diagnose what part is at fault and needs to be returned. Thanks again for the reply and any help you can offer or anyone else is greatly appreciated
