SOURCE: keep getting a message that says cpu shut down due

If you are looking at the pc from the front, take the left side cover off and ensure that the fan on the cpu is spinning when you turn the machine on. If it isn't, that needs to be replaced. If it is working, shut the pc completely down. Grasp the fan and heat sink unit and ensure that it does not move or wiggle at all. If it's loose, tighten the screws holding the fan/heatsink unit down. Try that and reply back with your findings.

Good Luck,

Thermal event issue

Overheating When the CPU overheats then it will shut down (i.e. thermal overload) and won't boot up again until it has cooled down. If this is the problem is not fixed then the CPU will eventually fail.
A faulty fan causes the problem or the fan and heat sink assembly are clogged with dust.
Check the CPU fan to see if it spins freely, if not replace the fan.
If the fan and heat sink is clogged with dust the remove the dust and make sure the vents are clear and dust free. Use a small brush and can of compressed air to do this.

After thermal event, pc will not reboot.

Buy some arctic silver from radio shack ($10). Remove the heat sink from the CPU. Apply a dime sized drop and spread it with a credit card or saving card. Attach heat sink.

My computer will not boot up. When I turn it on, the power light on the left side is a burnt orange color, while the HD light on the right is green. The tower's fan is also very noisy as soon as you turn...

Check your memory,make sure it's re seated.it may be a board problem but 9/10 it's probably memory. hopefully nothing burned on the board.

Freezes during start up

My first plan of attack would check
Second the event log in the BIOS, looking for a heat event. Make sure your fans are spinning, while you are in there get a can of compressed air and blow out any and all dust. Sometime it becomes necessary to remove the processor and put a little Artic 5 between the cpu and the heat sync.I would check out the video card, the easiest thing to try first is to remove and update the video drivers. I still lean towards the heat event Idea...
Hope this give you a headstart in the correct direction. Good luck,
PS, if you are the one shutting it down and rebooting, look to the Video Card,

Gateway e-4100 thermal event

There can also be thermal sensors in your power supply, on your motherboard, and video card. Does your problem happen during gaming/heavy computing, after x amount of time, or totally randomly?

If your case conforms to the later ATX spec or some derivative thereof, don't block the hole in the side of the case.

Just some stuff I've run into, maybe you already know this!

Fan Malfunction??

Sounds like a heat issue, pop the side of your case open and turn on the PC, are there fans not moving? Take a close look at your processor fan if there is one.

New processor needed

Hi, For Dimension 3000 system here are your options. Pentium IV 3.2 GHz 533 / 800 MHz FSB Pentium IV 3.0 GHZ 533 / 800 MHz FSB Pentium IV 2.8 GHz 533 / 800 MHz FSB but what i'm worried about is the socket where the process goes into. for thermal issues it is expected for the socket to CHIP CREEP. Chip creep refers to the problem of chips that, over time, would work their way out of the socket. Chip creep occurred due to thermal expansion; the contracting and expanding during system heat up and cool down. you might end up replacing the mobo as well.
