I thought it might be a virus or my power supply. Any ideas?

Try downloading and installing speedfan. This will let you monitor the temperatures on your mainboard and cpu. You may have a heat issue, causing a shutdown after a period of time. If it does it everytime at the same interval, this is the most likely issue. Weak/bad cpu fan, poor airflow from dust blockage, video card overheating from fan or airflow issues, etc. May try taking the side cover off and putting a window type fan right next to the pc and aim the fan towards the cpu and video card. If no more shutdowns, heat is the problem.
its probably your power supply
might be overheating…
Without more details I would assume its shutting down to prevent overheating.
Maybe your graphics card or the processor are running at max capacity for these games, causing extra heat, so the system shuts down.
Is this Ryan Kirke? LOL that would funny….
Have you scanned your computer for virus’?
Maybe you should try reinstalling the game?
