    Sounds like maybe your mother board or processor is over heating. Take a look inside your computer and see if both fans are running. If they are... it may be a hard drive problem. I don't know the exact specs for how hot your processor should get so I can't tell you what it should be. I'm going to say it's most likely a heat problem though. It may be an easy fix just to replace the bad fan is there is one.
