It sounds to me like your hardware is overheating. Are you
overclocking your processor? A hot CPU is most likely the problem, but
it could be just about any hardware: power supply, videocard,
northbridge, RAM, hard drive, etc.

You should check CPU and motherboard chips for overheating. It DOES
happen when playing<br>
video for long time. I had similar problems, until I cleaned CPU's
heatsink from dust.<br>
Usually, when you do nothing, CPU must be as cold as room temperature.
When you use<br>
it at almost full load, it may overheat, and also may help other
components on the motherboard<br>
to overheat. While touching anything inside PC - turn it off, pull the
AC cord off and touch the <br>
ground once, to get off static electricity.<br>
