Usually you'd get a message on startup telling you that. There are some applications to monitor your internal cpu temperature though, could try them (don't have one, google it).

go to Advanced in system properties, click Settings under startup and recovery, and uncheck "automatically restart".

If it's a system problem then you will get a BSOD instead of shutting down; if it still shuts down it's probably overheating
