That probably means that your computer need a goor dusting.
Turn the computer OFF and unplug it.
Open the case.
You'll probably see that there is a layer of dust everywhere.
If there is a LOT of dust and the weather permit it, install yourself outside. That way, the dust will not remain inside.
Take a can of compressed air and blow the dust.
Blow some compressed air in the power supply.
Be carefull around any fans. Don't blow the air directly on them, it can damage them by causing them to spinn to fast.
While the case is open, you can check the various connectors to make sure they are secure.
Close the case, plug it back and power on.
It's probable that there will be some dust shooting out when you power on. It's normal.
