Did you run Memtest yet? If so, how about a hard drive diagnostic? Did you have a fan, maybe on the CPU stop spinning?
 
No I didn't run any Mem Or Drive test. I don't know how to do that. Can pls help me out. Fan & everything else working fine. I am using my pc now. Ubuntu linux. Thanks.
 
Thanks for your kind help. I did the memtest for 24min didn't find any errors. My hard drive is brand new. Bought it last week. Also I tired to install win on my 200gb sata drive didn't worked. Pls help me out. Don't know whats wrong with my pc.
 
I'd let it memtest run over night...but anyways as far as the sata drive is concerned and since your using ubunto you might want to post this in the linux section up above

You have to be specific if you want answers. What didn't work? What happened? If you got a BSOD, post the codes from the screen.
