I have also had similar problems with the CPU overheating. It could be just
about any part of the system overheating causing it. But the PS and CPU are
the most frequent and likely. If you have a newer MB you might be able to
monitor the CPU temp. you might also try adding an extra fan in the PC to
increase airflow.
