i think we need some more symptoms. Is it when on the net? Is it specifically when on yahoo answers? You should pull up your task manager and go to the processes tab, see what all is running and what is taking up the most memory. Do your hard drives make a funny noise when this happens? If so, maybe your drives are screwed up. As others have said, could be a heating/cooling problem. Makes sure the exausts on your tower isnt smothered.

With only that to go on, I'll say it sounds like a heat problem, see what your temperatures are in Hardware Monitor, check your fans, make sure they're running and free of dust.

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.

Clean your fans and make sure they work or replace them.
