This sounds like an overheating problem mate, check that your computer fans are working.

Does it give any sort of notification that it will shut down, or is it totally random?

Do me a favour, to help me understand this.

1) Open VC, load the game, then Alt + Tab out of the game
2) Check if any message appears before it restarts.

If not it sounds like a hardware problem, if a message occurs it's most likely software.

Have you tried any other games, and at what point do they freeze?

Reinstall VC. Also update all your drivers for you vid card, and get the latest version of direct X.
