Ok..have you checked the fans,to see if they are working?
they all are even the gpu. which was very weird. but lately before this happens i notice something weird going on on my comptuer it usually shuts down and sometimes when i turn it on it wont detect the keyboard and mouse and gives away no signal on my monitor which is connected via hdmi.

Even the psu fan?
 
Hi moonrays00,
A couple of questions.
Exactly when did this problem start?
Who fitted the water cooler?
The cooler comes with paste pre applied.
There is a transparent film over the heatsink paste. Did someone forget to remove this transparent film.
Is the cooler sitting squarely on the cpu with even tension n the screws?
Sorry for all the questions.

Moonray, I would ask that you download a free program called Speccy from Piriform.com. When you open the program it will analyze your system. Please post a screen shot or publish the findings by going to the File heading, upper left and click "publish" from the dropdown menu. Post the address you are given here so we can look at the results.
Seems Dougie were posting at the same time.

it started 2 days ago.
before it started i was experiencing blue screen and random shutdown then i switch it on it gives power but my keyboard and mouse is inaccessible (power off).

my friend did and its pre applied paste.
my pc is 4 years old already. it was fine until now.

turned it on today and pressed the bios key noticing my processor's heat is rising

yeah already installed one but i cant get past to the desktop its stuck on bios screen.
 
Can you please disconnect HDD to find out if computer can pass BIOS screen if it does then there is a chance HDD is failing.

May well be, but that wouldn't cause the system to overheat in seconds and shut down to prevent further damage to Hardware.
I think the heat issue which revolves around the CPU area, we need to address first.
That's my thoughts, at the moment.:)
@moonrays00 Your keyboard and mouse will work prepost, if you hook them up to the top black ports on the rear of your tower.
