My computer has two bad "behaviours":
1) Keeps randomly restarting.
2) When I shut down via menu, it doesn´t shut down but restarts.
There is no BSOD in both cases. When it starts again doesn´t show any error message in both cases
In Safe Mode it doesn´t happen and when I run UBUNTU via optical drive and it doesn´t happen either.
My computer was made in the beginning of 2012 by myself:

What I Already did:
a) Updated BIOS
b) Cleanned all temp files and run softwares to clean malwares e adwares. Run anti-vírus via Linux - AVG Rescue CD and WEB - Eset
c) Changed CMOS battery
d) Cleanned all the Fans, motherboard a case
e) Checked all wires and connection. Change power cables to HDDs.
f) Windows 7 Home Premium Original Clean Install (Formated the system HDD)
g) Installed all the motherboard drivers via ASUS site - the most recent ones
h) Installed Windows Office 2007 original install + AVAST free anti virus
i) Run MEMTEST86 during 15 hours and 11 minutes - 18 passs - no error - Run CHKDSK in the system hdd - no error
j) All work I did with an open case - No overheating
k) When I run UBUNTU for the first time I left the computer running for more than 15 hours - no error, no restarting. In the second time I run form more than 9 hours running some memory and CPU testes - no error, no restarting
l) All the web recomendations - No automatic restarts after crash - switch off buttom to shut down, computer iun performance mode (no sleeping), minidump record, and no wake up via network adapter. Installed o WhoCrashed. As I don´t get any BSOD, nothing to read on WhoCrashed !!!
m) Installed and run Burn-in for one hour. The worst case for CPU temperature was 48 celcius degrees. no error, no restaring.
n) In my point of view I may have windows problems, drivers problems (wich ones?) and HDD problems (where the system is). I don´t think I have PSU problems (it doesn´t crash on UBUNTU, in Windows SAFE MODE, 15 hours running MEMTEST86)
