Have you cleaned out the computer recently or rather, checked it for dust build up? If not you might want to do this, Use a can of compressed air and be sure to unplug it and ground your self by touching the frame of the case. Anything you can tell us prior to this happening? When is the last time it was running properly? Have you checked your hard drive for errors recently?
