Why in Windows Seven Build 7100 Restart every so often

Hi, i recently downloaded the free windows RC version buld 7100 from the windows website...

I would normally leave my laptop on all the time and every morning when i go to check for emails and news etc. i would have to log on (i normally just leave my laptop locked) and i would find my applications have all shutdown and a error message comes up saying an error and occured and has been solved.. please send to windows for a solution... and this happens all the time... at first i thought it would only happen once and today it happened exactly at 1.00pm as it restart right in front of me...

I looked on the Microsoft Website and it stated that in March 2010, they will start shutting down every two hours... so i dont know what is going on...

i wonder does this happen to anyone else or is their a fault in my system or is there a software which will help my situation??

You aren't still on the beta, you are in fact running RC 7100? (just to clarify)

Is it 1pm everyday?
Does it do a clean shutdown? Or does it just power off like when holding down the button or pulling the plug?

Do you have anything odd in your task scheduler?
Hit start>type task choose task scheduler then click on task scheduler library.

Yes its the RC 7100, is not 1pm everyday its just every so often, i tried the task scheduler and nothing weird came up... its not a shutdown it restarts the laptop....

Check the event log to see if it is in fact crashing. Start button, type event viewer and check the windows logs/System. Or the reliability and performance monitor then the reliability monitor.

Check to see if you have a crash dump. Check your settings first (See below). Then zip and upload to somewhere like rapidshare then we can have a look to see if it gives a driver name or other clues to the crash.

can you highlight the few before it or export to text? The ones referring to the power?

I found what it was.. my virus defender AVG was conflicting with the system during the scanning process at 12.30am... i disabled the scanning schedule and enabled again. i then scanned the system and everything seems alrite Thanks anyway :)
