Thanks!

Handbrake is the one I've gone with. My Home PC is a POS and was running hot and shutting itself down with Handbrake. I installed it on my work laptop instead which is top of the line and it's working like a charm. It converts all of my movie files to MP4 but also compresses them to a smaller size without a loss in picture or sound quality. Result!


Hi

If your computer is running hot, one thing you can try is shutting it down and popping it open and inspecting for excessive dust. If the airflow is blocked that can certainly cause issues such as you described. Simply vacuuming it out, especially around the fans and air intake can make a world of diference performance wise. If its shutting itself down the PSU could be damaged but its worth a shot and doesn't cost a dime

+1 to what the cap'n said above, if your computer wasn't running hot when it was new, why would it run hot now? In addition to cleaning out the dust, a broken fan can cause the same problem, make sure they are all spinning freely, especially the processor fan (if present).
