Hello, my laptop has always gotten very hot on the right side - recently it has started turning itself off. After a few minutes I can power on again without a problem

here are some possibilities: the internal fan died. it's full of dust/dirt and you need to blow it out with compressed air. unscrew the shield on the bottom of the laptop to see if the fan is turning or not. if it's not you need to get that fixed before you start using it at all.
