If hardware is failing, and you program your computer to turn off automatically, probably will be offline most of the time. Your computer gets hot because something is generating heat. If powersource, put your computer on a ventilated place, or change powersource. Install more vents, if neccesary. The room is hot? Not enough air:) ? powersource too loaded? Are ventilator axis' lubricated? Are ventilation holes free (a lot of people covers ventilation holes on pcs and monitors, and obviously, get hardware burnt)? WHY are the computer so hot? (forget the alarm, it is useful, it is saying "Check system, please, something is burning me...")
