This could be an overheating situation. If you are OK with going inside
the case, you can check for any accumulated dust particularly on fans
and heatsinks. Be careful of electrical differentials by unplugging the
computer and touching the case. If you are not comfortable with opening
the case, you can clean the exterior fans and the case filter, if any,
and that may be enough for now.
