My older desktop, a Gateway, just stops.?

It will run for about 20 minutes then shut off. I have to unplug and wait, and then it will do the same. If I just turn off the puter from the main switch it will not go back on. Both fans are working fine, but they also shut down. It is a cool room, and I have even opened the sides to allow more air into the area.
