Randomly my iMac has shutdown and rebooted, takes me to the "your system has crashed" screen then reboots after asking me if I want my windows opened as they were before the crash.

Happens when I'm typing only, otherwise the computer has stayed up fine. Anyone else have an issue with their keyboard?

Mine: 2009 iMac i5 quadcore w/ 8gb ram



UPDATE:
May have narrowed down the issue to the fact that it has to my knowledge only crashed when typing in Google Chrome. I switched to Safari for about 10 minutes, no crashing while typing. I opened the notes app and just randomly typed along for about 3 to 4 minutes and no crashing. Maybe Chrome just needs to be updated?
