Air in the system can cause a lock and stops the fluid circulating Try running with the radiator cap off and squeeze the tubes to move the air around
1- Be sure the rad cap is tight and the gasket good (a new one is cheap and will ensure correct system pressure)
2- Be sure the fans are working and coming on when they should
3- Air in the system (already stated above)
4- If still doing it after all that you might have a corroded radiator/blocked flow or a failing water pump
if the temp. gauge is 3/4 up , is it not a sign of overheating !(overheating is in the red area , and when the Water is boiling ).
Do your fans Work ?
