I'm doing some research in my lap, but when is using it over few hours it suddenly turn off. First i thought it was overheating. so i use 2 table fan to cool it. but it didn't work. And i can't guess a problem. Need a help soon as soon possible.
Does it happen only when on battery or also with charger connected?
Suggest to take out the battery for an extended period of time and see if power-off still happens.
How olde is this laptop? A cooling fan as you describe may not be effective...; if the actual vents on the laptop are clogged up with dust...
Get a can of compressed air and - with battery removed and no power adapter attached either - remove any removable panels on the base. Then blow out all vents and open areas with the compressed air...
Then replace panels etc. and see if the problem persists afterwards?
Install this and run it to check temperatures:

it happens even charger connect or not. Lap made in 2009. I cleaned dust in that vents. By the way. when i poweron my lap. BIOS display SYSTEM TEMPERATURE IS TURNED OFF. like that, and my cooling fans are working it maximum capacity, So my battery goes down after more than 3h . Is there any solutions for that?
It's almost certainly overheating and probably needs a good clean out. Most likely the CPU heat-sink inside needs cleaning and/or the fans themselves. Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
