Normally, your computer will not do a shutdown task when you're onto update manager.

You can observe any errors by doing update on the Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and issue the command:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

HTH.

Please deeply check you ram memory

press shift at Ubuntu boot when you see the man in the circle icon and use the memtest menu item please run this test for many hours i suggest you to test for all night long, or stop it and replace your damage ram if you ger errors.
