knowledge of your back broke desktop/tower contents would be helpful.
if it is still running, i would suggest 3 possible problems to go after first.
#1 = power supply:
does fan stop?
do you lose all voltages?
#2 = heat:
are you testing with covers on or off?
do you have good air circulation?
cpu have correct heat sink and fan?
is memory over heating?
does mainboard have heat sensors?
#3 = harddisk:
is drive new? if used, was it previously mounted flat or on side?
if drive is flat and stops, flip upside down, still run?
if drive on side and stops, flip to other side, still run?
if drive is flat and stops, turn to side, still run?
if drive on side and stops, turn to flat, still run?
peace out.
