Dear friend,

First confirm that your computer goes to turn off automatically having a problem of power supply or other problem in your computer hardware.

Here is some answer for auto turn off PC:

Power supplies are super cheap. Unless you have a great electronics background the effort isn't worth it.
If you do have such knowledge, check that the electrolytic capacitors in the power supply are not bowed up on the top.
Any that are will need to be replaced.
Also look for electrolyte leakage near the bottom of the capacitors. Caps that are leaking need replacing too. This is the most common power supply "works sometimes but not others" failure. In general though, I say replace the power supply to be sure that this is actually the fault.
I know that AT class power supplies are very hard to find now, but surplus places will sometimes have them cheap, or maybe you can find one in an old discarded system or surplus system.
I believe there also may be ATX to AT conversion cables available on the web.
Good luck!
