Download HWInfo and run Sensors. Post the results - usually 3 screenshots in TinyPic or similar. That'll tell us if your hardware is misbehaving.

shutdowns are most probably because the psu its a crappy one and it cannot handle the card at load.
so get a good 450 - 500 watt 80+ certified psu which have at least 19 amp @ 12+ volt rail.
