Is your processor FAN running ?? Look in side the cabinet and see if the processor FAN is running at proper speed !!!!

The CMOS battery cld be discharged

can you go into Bios? If yes then go into the bios and make changes to boot order, then reboot and see if the boot order is the same..

The Ram cld have gone ka[ut

2. remove your ram and put it back again, in a different slot. Also Check power connections to motherboard/hdd

Lastly.. remove all non essential components from ur pc -pci cards, usb stuff, keyboard/mouse cdrom etc etc.
Try to boot.
