    It sounds like it could possibly be a virus, ive heard theres a virus that does that, im not sure...
    try booting in safe mode and run a scan if you can, if you dont find anything, check your hardware, loose cables, broken cooling fans, Do you leve your computer on constantly? That can cause it, eventually by damaging hardware slowly.
