When i turn my pc on in the morning it will turn off around 5-10 times a day. But it's odd because the screen freezes then about a few seconds later the sound stops. As soon as i press the power button it instantly turns off. I have been wondering if it could be my gpu because it freezes sometimes throughout the day then it says "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered". If you need more details just ask and any help is appreciated.

If you suspect its the GPU then remove it (use your MB display) and see if the freezes/restarts stop, if not then its probably something else but hopefully its software related and not a defective product. Are your GPU drivers up-to-date? If so try doing a clean install of the drivers and wipe any older drivers that were downloaded from your system. Also which version of Windows do you have?
