    Fan kicks in, then shuts down, probably overheating. Check your temps.
    Clean out your computer., get rid of all that dust near the fan.
    You can use speed fan to check temp

    Whenever you download software, be aware of any notices that are given regarding other software that is included. They usually allow you to opt out if not wanted.

    You may have some damage caused by overheating. I am not as proficient with hardware problems as I am with software.

During the night my virus scan, automatic backup, defrag run. I have the system set on Hybrid Sleep because with sleep mode they do not run. My computer stays on all of the time except for hybrid sleep. Do any of you turn yours off or is it OK just to leave it on 24/7?
