To verify whether your PC is actually overheating, you can download a little
app called Core Temp which continually monitors the temperature of your CPU
and displays it in the System Tray. As a general rule, your CPU should
operate at a temperature below 60 degrees C, although this can vary with
manufacturer. However, if Core Temp constantly displays temperatures in
excess of this threshold, you might have a defective cooling fan which could
cause your PC to overheat and shut down.
