Keeps shutting down and freezing.

Keeps shutting down and freezing.

Okay bare with me on this, it's actually my ol mans computer but he is at work and asked me to see if I could find someone who knew what this could be. Normally we have no problem watching a movie from the computer on our tv, and him playing his game(HoN if it matters what game). However last night it froze, and the next time he tried it it shut off. He tried a stress test and it shut off. He is pretty sure it's the power cell or the mother board but what's some other opinions. Also, we thought it was just a lot of spyware at first since it wouldn't let us turn it on even, it was freezing on the start up. We have windows 7, we just reinstalled. This is the mother board we have. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128514
 I don't know what the power cell is but I'll find out and post it. Thanks in advance!

Oh also it's not throwing any codes.
