If it fried your CPU, your CPU wouldn't be functioning at the moment :p

How are the temperatures on your CPU?

If I had to take another guess, it could be a hard drive issue. Do you hear any clicks coming from the hard drive when it happens?

Maybe the heatsink is not seated properly and has moved?

You can't always trust the temperature reported from these programs. You don't know exactly where it is taking the measurements from. So, IMO, it is worth cheaking the heatsink and maybe even worth reapplying thermal past between the heatsink and CPU.

Or it may be a BIOS issue. When I first built my current comp it was rediculously unstable and it was the BIOS at fault. May be worth updating that too.

I'm no expert in the field, but a good way to start is to download superpi or prime95, or any other stress tests to stress your CPU.

I would suspect your CPU is overheating and this will confirm whether or not your CPU overheats under heavy load.

Best option would be to get technical assistance from trained pros though.
