maybe she has too many running programs?
I had that problem when I first put a cd burner in my computer and had too many running programs.
Tell her to shut down any programs that arent needed for the burning.

Sounds like processor overheat to me. Check and make sure the cooling fan is running and the heatsink is clean.

Not that I'm some authority, but just to help the guy out.
I had the same problem with my Athlon T-Bird 1ghz a few years back...had to get a Tt fan.
