When I copy the CD/DVD to HD, the laptop power down

If I copy all the data from CD or DVD to HD then my computer just power down. Neither the light of the energy is on. I have to wait for some minutes if I want to turn on the computer again. This problems is just with linux. With the windows I don't have any problem.
This is my second laptop with the same problem. The first one, after two days it didn't turn on.
Is it a hardware problem or a software problem?

Toshiba A105 S361
Fedora Core 5
