This makes it virtually impossible to watch any movies, listen to music, use youtube etc. because the laptop will invariably shut down in the process. I was wondering whether the processor overheating is connected to the battery being old.

I have a Dell Inspiron BTW.
Same thing happens to my laptop. If it stays on for more than an hour I'm shocked.
