Default a/c only works on low

Hey folks. 95 degrees in NC and my a/c only works on low. Works great on low, but shuts off when the fan is increased.

'99 with no previous a/c service. Worked fine yesterday.

Thoughts?

UPDATE:

recharged freon, worked great for about 30 minutes. But now a step back, no fan on one, no a/c on two-four!!!

Default updated information

Got it checked by a professional. Turns out the resistor pack was corroded. Wiring the the pack corroded. That lead to the unusual symptoms.

Not something I would have been able to repair on my own.

Sometimes, you just have to give in.
