My comp does that when my video card overheats.
I have a nVidia 8800GTS. When I forget to crank up the fan using the nVidia control panel, my computer shuts off when I play BC2 or MW2.
Try making sure your video card has good ventilation. _________________

Almost definitely an overheating problem. Download a utility that monitors your core temp and you might want to look into getting additional case fans. _________________
