Hi umaqsood and welcome.

This is probably heat related - your processor will cut out at 90 degrees. The K315 Vaios use a desktop type processor which can get quite warm.

Try gently cleaning out the air vents to the fan with a can of compressed air to allow the processor to cool. In the worst cases you may have to disassemble the Vaio to clean it out. Quite a lot of dust can accumilate over time.

You can check the CPU temperature by downloading a utility program like PC Wizard 2009.
