overheating
getting too hot
check to make sure all your fans are running
if so then blow out the computer case and around the CPU with
canned air

It means your cpu got too hot and shut down to avoid serious damage,
you'll have to give us more info to go on to decide the best course of action but it may involve more fans or reseating your cpu

hello not a problem
check the processor instantly when the cpu shut down
if the cpu is in extream heat then you have problem with cooling system but it cpu normal then there is problem with the processor

Hi, just had this same problem, found this thread, installed "Core Temp" (or anything else that provides the CPU temp, and then looked inside my PC case.
I saw that although the CPU fan was working fine, the heat sink under it was completely blocked by dust. Easily cleaned by using a toothbrush and a vacum together.
Problem is solved!
