Ok, so i turn on my computer and about half an hour - 45 minutes later it just shuts down. As if the electrics go out (which they dont 'cause tv and lights stay on) and then i have to leave it for a bit to be able to turn it back on again, if i dont leave it and press the button, nothing happens, i also know when it's about to shut down because it makes weird noises and most of the time when i turn it on it's really loud. it never used to be like this.
Anyone knwo how to help?

    You probably have a dying power supply. Do you know what that is and how to replace it? :)

    That symptom is usually an indicator that the CPU is overheating. Which usually means your CPU fan isn't spinning fast enough or it's somehow been knocked out of alignment from the CPU so it's not cooling it properly.
