Note that, depending on your chipset, lm_sensors can be difficult to configure.

thanks i'll try that out. I fell asleep last night with my laptop on and when i woke up it was off. The first thing i did when i logged back in was check /var/log/messages.
Code:
[root@localhost jeff]# tail /var/log/messages
Dec 10 06:29:38 localhost kernel: agpgart: Found an AGP 2.0 compliant device at 0000:00:00.0.

I don't see anything that stands out to me. The only thing i can think of is with the messages for agpgart maybe it is having trouble with the LCD monitor? On a positive note my friend found out that the cat likes to play with the extension cord he has his computer plugged into and loosed it up enough and that was why it was shutting down because it would loosen enough to not be plugged in. Thanks for your help. Im going to try to install Im_sensors right now.
