scratch shuts off my computer

whenever i go on the scratch programming language (1.3) it works for about 5 minutes, then my computer turns off. it didnt use to do this, and does not do it on the website or any other program. does this happen to anyone esle, and, if so, is there a way to fix this?

Re: scratch shuts off my computer

Have you tried re-installing it? You could also try upgrading to Scratch 1.4, available through the download link at the bottom of each page.

Also, what OS are you using?

Re: scratch shuts off my computer

Did you download it from a different site? In other words, did you download it from the Scratch website, or another website?

Sometimes that causes this kind of problem.
