I was online this a.m. and all of a sudden a window came up on the desktop saying, "restarting". I checked my updates file and nothing had been updated by windows. Where do I look to find out what was going on. Like what was updated that required a restart? Thanks.

Are these complete loss of power restarts? Temperature issues very rarely cause reboots, usually suffer thermal throttling long before a shut down.

Usually this type of issue is PSU related. I have no idea about the quality of PSU. Please check the health of your PSU.

Thanks for that information.

How can the original poster figure out what went wrong and how to fix it?

Dig through event logs more correlate that with log file based on what is found. It's not really a cut and dry set up steps to follow
