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.

I did that, and it worked, but now i have a blank screen. Computer worked fine, but than after shutting it down i turned it on the screen shows up blank and it the tower is not making the same sounds when it loads up. It turns on and thats about it, no loading, no beeping, even the keyboard light doesn't come on. Any ideas????
Anything will be appreciated, Thank you!!!!!!

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