Im struggling to determine a problem of mine. Recently I recieved
fatal CPU temprature message in my BIOS when my system was starting
thought nothing of it switched my machine off and came back to find i
working alright. However a few weeks down the line now I am finding m
system is freezing or so it seems. My screen will freeze the curren
picture, sound will stop. Therefor I can still see the state of th
crash. However outbound MSN connections remain intact and my CD driv
still opens and closes. To this I think it could be an overheatin
problem.
Checking my cpu temp running P4 Intel 3.21Ghz im on 57*C and usin
0.07% CPU usage. My case is open, well venitlated and I have vacumen
my case clean, removed my heatsink and and dust.

Could it simply be a problem of a lack of thermal paste, OR could it b
a graphics card problem. I cannot determine!

Any help is apriciated!

Thanks, Jami
 
You received a "fatal CPU temprature message in [your] BIOS" and you
"thought nothing of it". That's your problem. Now your system is fried.
