While you put your pc on a standby the operating system tries to deactivate various hardware devices such as your lan card or your video card, in order to save electricity. When you wake your computer from a standby, if the operating system fails to restore communication with the deactivated hardware (purely due to inability of the hardware to wake up from a standby) then the entire system enters an endless loop of trying to communicate with the hardware but without response. hence the entire system restarts. In order to solve the problem, update your drivers to all your hardware devices. OR in you device manager, if there is an option disable switching off the hardware during a standby. Hope this helps.

Check your start up programs.\nSTART > RUN > type MSCONFIG > STARTUP uncheck things you really do not started at Boot up.

ATX type computers always have power being supplied to the motherboard. This is a standby voltage, it is what lets you turn your computer on form the power on button in the front. \n\nI believe you are worried that it isn't turned off because you can see lights in the back of the computer flashing. This is cause of that. Dell I know is one manufacture that dose this. All you have to do is shutdown the computer and turn off the monitor for it to be turned off.

I would have to agree that your either have a virus and/or you have a very serious spyware or trojan that is keeping your computer busy. Run Spybot, Adaware, or other spyware programs if you can. Also Winpatrol and other programs can tell you what starts up when windows boots up. Ctrl +Alt + delete at the same time can bring up Task Manager. This will tell you what processes are running and how much CPU it is using. Maybe you could end those processes that are going crazy. It may be hard to run anti-virus and anti-spyware when it is too busy with the problem. TrendMicro has a free scanner. http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

Usually, it's some kind of timed software running in the background.  Screensavers are the most common.  But sometimes there are update utilities for Java, Windows and equipment that checks the Internet regularly.  Try to boot into safe mode, and be sure that the screensaver is turned off and you should be fine.

If your power supply is faulty or your processor fan is broke your PC will shut down to cool down, but wouldn't necessarily start up again.\nIt sounds like a virus or worm infection.  I would try going into windows in safe mode (F8 function key normally) and see if the system continues to close down.\nIf it is stays on o.k. check you haven't installed a driver or software recently that may be conflicting with Windows.  If this happens you should be able to roll back the driver or system restore to a point where you know your PC was o.k. (In F8 this is the "Last known good configuration")\nIf it shuts down again it may be a virus, have a look on symantec's site for a hotfix for the latest virus/worm,if it is a virus you'll proably need to disable your system restore whilst trying to remove it.  Follow the instructions to remove it carefully so not to destroy your pc further!!

either you have a virus or you have defined an automatically shutdown. check in system control / energy options what's defined. deactivate standby modus if activated.

Go into your power options (control panel) and make sure that hibernate and standby are both off.

While on standby, your entire computer switches to a low-power state where devices, such as the monitor and hard disks, turn off and your computer uses less power. When you want to use the computer again, it comes out of standby quickly, and your desktop is restored exactly as you left it. Standby is particularly useful for conserving battery power in portable computers. Because Standby does not save your desktop state to disk, a power failure while on Standby can cause you to lose unsaved information.  If your network connection remains live in Standby mode, then Messenger should remain connected.\n\nThe hibernate feature saves everything in memory on disk, turns off your monitor and hard disk, and then turns off your computer. When you restart your computer, your desktop is restored exactly as you left it. It takes longer to bring your computer out of hibernation than out of standby.  Since your computer is powered off, you would no longer be signed into Messenger.
