please give more details
firstly - is the system working fine in 98?
does the logon screnn comes up or not?
if your is single user doest the windows blue screnn comes up?
also try going into safe mode and mention the programs being loaded in startup using msconfig.exe

Did someone play a prank with your windows registry... its possible to make such a setting... check out your autorun settings with msconfig or else, post your HijackThis log file (as Batty says )

i am assuming a7v8x-mx
- in bios check option called ac power loss restart , change to off
- check temp in bios
- increase shutdown temp to 95
- clear cmos if above steps dont work
- if ur able to go to safe mode , probably problem with drivers .
- check asus site for latest bios and the bugs fixed by it
