  Overheating.
  
  Either that, motherboard or hard disk is nearly gone case.
  
  Don't ask why. Your laptop has warned you already.

  buy cooler la... dey come in cheap... 7$+ in funan... 5th floor i tink...
  ventilation no use 1...
  laptops after 1 yr usually veri fast overheat 1... probably of all the dust accumulated making the heat harder to get out...
  laptop's lifespan not dat gd la... 3 yr become can throw away type already... unless u the business kind dun care abt the stuffs inside 1...
  besides, laptops become obsolete veri fast too.

  Can it be the ventilation fans in your laptop have already konked off? If so, getting a cooler pad will not help...
  
  As others have advised, if it's still under warranty, send it in for a check...

  i used to have a toshiba satellite series laptop. ON 24/7 for months also no problem...no special cooling/ventiliation.
