Test your PSU or replace it if your power supply units fan is not working your PSU is faulty

One bad lead can cause a computer to continue on a cycle or to shutdown or fail to detect/ boot up a computer hard drive

Test all leads that attach to your hard drive including electrical extensions,IDE,SATA

the leads from your "((MOTHERBOARD TO YOUR HARD DRIVE))" make sure they have a secure connection and are not faulty or just replace them they could be faulty make sure all leads that are attached to your drives dvd\cd 3 1/2 inch floppy have secure connections and are not faulty even the electrical extensions or just replace them they could be faulty a computer needs its connections to continue its cycle and have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error hope this helps

Don't know if this will help but, couldn't find anything with Biostar or Nvdia

Yo dir?a de probar la micro y luego la memoria en distintas placas madres, para descartarlas. Yo me volcar?a a pensar que es cosa de la placa madre.

Tambien puede haber una posibilidad de que el problema este en la copia de windows (qu? version es?) Puedes probar con otra versi?n de windows o con un live cd con linux.
