Cpu clocking system failure due to cpu clocking

There are three common failures with these systems.
CPU failure due to dust build up in the CPU cooler.
Power supply failure.
Hard drive failure.
There will be no "beep code" for any of these.

..plz do check the following as in order:..
the Hardware part:..
3) unplug mains supply..pick open/remove the cmos battery..check (above +3v)..resit..change if required..

6)remove/clean dust neatly..dust is non-uniform in nature n may cause jam/short circuitry/excess resistance n many more..resulting an increase in heat..

7) open the CPU Heat-Sink with fan out of the socket..put some "Heat Sink Compound" (available in local electronics chip level spare market) between the cpu/processor and the CPU Heat Sink *** fan..resit/fit it tightly in position..

8)on main/mother board..see with a debug card for mb error..may bshort..look for defective capacitors(esp above1000mfd)/mosfets..go through the mb's south bridge n the circuit lie around atx connector..the crystal clock generator (if cpu isn't heating up)..

if u r not a professional, always better to seek advise from ur system admin/vendor....
