Not sure what you mean by "shutdown" - the OS shuts down the system cleanly or the BIOS just switches off the power? If the former, you, most probably, just have wrongly configured sensors. I had a problem with fictitious CPU overheating, until I modified my /etc/sensors.conf. Just ask on [EMAIL PROTECTED] - no need to subscribe, people are very helpful there.
