You ARE DAMAGING YOUR CARD

If that gets my point across. It is over heating hence the shut down.
You need to check msi after burner. As HD 5770 Over heats insanely.
At above 105 degrees it will burn out quite quickly.
These cards over heat insanely, I had one, and it has insanely high Temps.
And several others as well. Not a good card for litecoin mining. Or bitcoin mining.
Runs too hot.

What he said.
I had a HD5770 and it was getting to high temperatures such as 90 C.
When I started getting bad pixels, I changed it with a HD6770 and now the maximum load temperature is like..50 C

You can look for a second hand card on bitcointalk.org.
Depending on your budget.

Some good cards:

Very Tight Budget: HD 6850 & HD 5870
Tight Budget: HD 6870, 6950, 7850, 7870
Avg Budget: HD 7950, HD 5970, HD 6990.
HD 7950 gets the same hashrate as HD 7970,
for scrypt mining, I own both, and its the same.
