^That could be an overheating issue. It should get the job done, just be slower. Maybe download Speedfan or something similar to monitor temps. You may just need to clean the dust out or replace the CPU fan. Or maybe it's the application your using. I've heard good things about Handbrake for video reencoding.

I believe that Pentium CPU's scale down their speed to keep cool while AMD CPU's are more likely to cause a hard restart.
