my computer keeps over heating!
I've had my computer for a little while now, but it always has worked just fine. I've had it for like 8 years? It works well, and I don't know, sometimes its a tiny bit slow, but its never that big of a deal.
Well, anyway.. i will be right in the middle of something, anything, & it will just shut off. like the tower will turn off. & its really hot. this happened 3 times today, and its been happening a lot lately.
so my question is.. is this bad? is there any way to fix this? will i need to buy a new computer soon...
thank you!

You're going to need to replace it. If its starting to overheat regularly that means that its not handling the cooling well and that its overheating to the point that your processor is probably pretty damaged.
Four to five years is the best half life you should expect out of a new computer. Its time to reinvest.

Im not a computer expert or anything like that but this used to happen to my computer at work. Apparently there are fans in computer and the fans werent turning on so it was getting to hot and turning off. Maybe it could be that. Or even just try keeping your computer off when your not using it.
