Might be summin in the power management properties, right click on desktop>screen saver> power setting. Then check all the settings are ok.

Or does the whole PC shut down ?

No it just shuts down, also i have to hit the switch on psu before it comes on again.

have you tried moving the mouse or tapping a few keys ?
what you should do is not get something to eat

I would just watch the pc to see what it does when it shuts down, like it might say "prepairing for hibernation " or something like that
