System XP shuts down after few minutes

XP-Micron Laptop. System shuts down after a few minutes. Reboot, then shuts down after few minutes. Prior to this problem was trying to download music videos from the site: can't remember exactly ??hotcodez.com or hotcodes.com or hotcodz.com>>then pop up came up>>clicked out of pop up but pop up just kept coming up>>82x>>before I realized there is a problem.
Please help as I desperately need to copy information off this computer because it was a loner and I have to turn it back in.

Read through this post and run the programs it recommends. That should solve the issue.
