Just a shot in the dark here but is it a laptop? If yes than its probably over heating you can either go and get a cooling mat that has a fan or 2 in it witch worked very well on my old lap top or do what I did and get a desktop. Most laptops have very poor airflow to begin with then try playing a game like GTA4 on it and yea a half an hour sounds about how much time you would get before it over heats and shuts itself down to prevent damage and or fire

That sounds more like overheating than a power surge. If it is, don't try to disable it, or your processor could actually melt and your computer could catch fire.

Look in "Windows Event Viewer" and see what caused the shutdown. I used to have this problem, and it turned out that the graphics card was what was overheating.

Dont know what to tell yea then have never seen it only thing I can think of is there might be an issued with the power suply (some times you just get a lemon) or the power supply might not be powerful enought however if its a brand new pc built for gaming and the builder knew what they were doing the first option is more likley
