HI Bidaman,

As far as I understood, you cooler is working but is not working all the time. Is this right? The way a cooler is working may depend on its model, configuration and above all, the temperature in the case. I would recommend you to measure the working temperature of your PC.
The pleasewait.exe process is part of the Windows activation. Have you been asked to activate your Windows copy recently? If you have a Windows installation drive, boot from it and select the Repair option. It may fix some minor errors without harming your data. For other troubleshooting steps, please check this article in the Microsoft forum:

Hope this helps

It sounds like a bit strange issue. Sudden loss of signal or shut downs may indicate a problem with the power supply. Sometimes the power may be enough to run the cooling and the LEDs, but not enough to run the PC normally. It may be worth it to check the power supply unit. It is just a suggestion, but a faulty PSU can cause a lot of trouble and damage to other hardware. In order to check it, you may need to seek assistance from a technician or try using another power supply.
