Please also check that there isn't a thermal problem.
On a 5 year old machine there has been a lot of opportunity for dust to
accumulate and clog cooling fins, etc.
Just as a preventative take a can of pressurized air and squirt out all the
vent holes.  If you get very much dust coming out you need to continue the
process until you are getting a clean air stream coming out.

“The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted” (Psalm
12:8)
“ But now, he that hath a purse, (bill fold, credit card holder) let him
take it, and likewise his scrip: (dollars) and he that hath no sword, let
him sell his garment, and buy one. Luke 22:36 (KJV) emphasis added.
