Bad memory? Mismatched memory? Bad BIOS settings?
Download Memtest86+ and test the memory.

As DosFreak points out, it could be one of the three things he suggests. It may also be a question of heat. After you run the memory test and make sure that your bios is the latest and it still does what it does, just remove a panel from the computer to allow more air to circulate. If it keeps running after an hour, you may need a few extra fans.
