Not sure if this is a windows question...but here we go. New PC with P4
3.4ghz cpu, 2ghz DDR2 memory, 80gb hd, 256mb nvidia PCI Express video card.
User plays a game on line called City of Heroes. When on-line playing game,
PC may run 5 minutes before shutting down or may run 3 hours before shutting
down. In windows, on the internet or in any other program it runs
flawlessly. Already know it is not a heat issue. Any gamers out there have
any ideas?

I was going to guess it's a driver, but the card is pretty new, right?
How's the power supply?Anything on the game manufacture's site? Anything in
the system event log? Error messages?
