I Have A Question For The Computer Techs Among Us?

I have a question for the computer techs among us? I have an HP desktop computer that I purchased for my work from home business. I got on it last week to check emails and then clicked shutdown in the start menu and it completely shut down. A few days ago, I happened to come in my room to get something off my desk and I noticed that it was turned on and running in "hibernate" mode. I touched the keyboard and the screen came up to my login page for Windows. It is Windows 7, Professional. I logged in and it went to the desktop page. I clicked on the start menu and brought up "shutdown" again. I clicked on it and it shutdown for a second and came back on again. I even thought that it might have something to do with my DSL connection, so shut the modem off and tried to shut it down and it still did the same thing. Does anyone know what it might be that caused it to do that? I am not getting anywhere with HP tech support. It is covered with a warranty if it is a hardware issue, but if it is something else, I was told I would have to pay to get it fixed by Geek Squad out of my own pocket. I am really worried, because there is quite a bit already invested in the cost of my Home Office as it is. I just don't need this right now.
