Please write more clearly and specifically and use periods. I'm happy to help but I really couldn't make much out of what you wrote.
The first thing to check is the CPU fan and heatsink. Make sure the fan is running and that it is firmly attached to the CPU. Some Antec Silver Thermal Paste or some other thermal paste placed between the heatsink and the CPU might help.
If that doesn't seem to help, try removing all connections to all drives, USB ports, everything. Only the motherboard should be powered (usually, there are three connectors going to the motherboard). The only other connection should be, if necessary, two leads that are used by the power switch. No hard drives, floppy disks - NOTHING - should be connected to the motherboard or power supply. Start your machine and let it POST (go through the Power On Self Test) and run for awhile. If it stays on, then the problem is either a shorted/screwed up drive or device, or an overloaded or failing power supply.
-Do you believe you own your computer and shouldn't be told what you can run and do? Then say *NO* to Microsoft Vista!
-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.
