I would say you are having overheating issues.
I agree. Video converting programs heat computer up.
My IDLE temps are around 20C, but, when I'm using video converting program, they shoot up to around 50C.hi thanks for your help.
i had pc in shop a few months ago when it wasw overheating very seriously as pc was on 24 7 and i only used to convert and burn. the whole inside pc was totally replaced as it was under warranty,pc was perfect when it came back from shop.as far as i know it is not overheating TOWER is cool whereas before tower used to get redhot all the time. SOMEBODY advised it could be my memory but i have 2 gig and as far as i know it is ok.thanksI dont think it has something to do with your memory. But if you want to try it out, reseat ONE memory at a time and try running the program.

Try also touching your videocard or processor fan if ever you ran the program and your pc switches off.Did you follow the instructions?
It won't be your RAM if it just turns off when video converting, you'd likely be getting other errors and BSODs.
Turning off indicates overheating.
