Mend Itself After Mins

how to stop my computer turning itself off after 10 mins or so?

when it goes off i try to turn it on again and it starts to beep every 5 seconds, press reset button on tower and it will eventually come back on mostly (not always)
HELP, KEEP LOSING STUFF!

5 beeps at the start also indicates duff memory! Have your RAM checked. It's probably a trip to your local PC store.

Hi, make sure your pc isnt getting over heated. Keep the tower away from radiators or from heaters.

Consider opening up the tower and removing any dust they may be on the fan(s) inside.
