something wrong with your hardware/bios/cmos?

I read: "processor is burned out" on your message. Try just changing it. Also, check twice your CPU FAN, if it is blowing fair enough and thermal paste. That should do it.

the computer feels cold

yes... it needs to be hot just once to screw things up forever.

It is kind of, on a possible first heat peak, the internals were damaged and now on a temperature below the manufacturer's line is enough to make it crash.

Anyway, it i a guess. The best thing you could do is exchange part by part until you eliminate only what is making it die. Well, there's a chance a defective motherboard could toast a brand-new processor, so take care...
