Your desktop/laptop may be overheating. Which are you using?

desktop how can i fix this

Must be overheating. If you're using a laptop it's a common problem. If it's a desktop then you should try cleaning the fan for dust and such.

Hello there

it may well be overheating. Is it a home build? If so, did you use paste between the cpc and heatsink?

All fans/ducts clean/clear?

Any new kit installed?

my guess is a powersupply thats not up to snuff or dieing.

could also be dust in the parts.. when was the last time you blew it out ???

Get CPUID Hardware Monitor (Free) and check your temps:

If temps are ok, then it could well be your power supply like the guy above said.

Please make a follow up report here tomorrow mister :)

... get some compressed air at least to clean it - don't go spitting all over your machine. Just put a new Power supply, RAM, and GPU in mine the other day - owned this thing for 1 year, second cleaning - CPU and GPU was GUNKED UP with dust...

You have trouble ?

Then post in the Troubleshooting Forum.

Easy.

If you posted your specifications that would help !
