Seems pretty clear that some vital component has died of heat stress. Chances are it's either the CPU or one of the north,south bridges on the motherboard. Either way, it's time to rip the guts out of that box and replace the important bits. Or buy a whole new machine, if you're not interested in getting the screwdrivers out. If you do replace the CPU/Mobo make sure to replace the CPU heatsink and any fans -- you should monitor fan speeds and CPU temperature: a combination of the net/mrtg and sysutils/xmbmon ports does it for me.
