It shutdowns when the reformatting process going on and while Windows installing the important files..after that if its manage to finish it before shutdown its safe.. By the way it could be hard disk fault..i changed and still face the same problem..when reformatting the new harddisk and install Windows.. Dead end.. :( Unable to figure it out LOL..nope..its happen when reformatting process..have to do again and again..then if by luck its managed to finish and installing Windows after that..and still shutdown..after install the Windows main files and enter the pretty UI installation process its stopped…
