Few days back i noticed my pc was shutting down frequently. On restarting it manually there was a beep sound. So i checked the temp and found it to be 100c.
I applied some thin film of thermal pase.
Now the processor fan doesn't fit into the slots( this is not my 1st time).
Also the PC boots with beep sound without any display and shuts dows in 10sec.
Please reply what can i do.

You haven't set the processor fan correctly. Booting PC without processor fan, can burn your processor out (If it haven't have already).

Thanks. I fixed the fan and now its fine.
Now its working fine. Next time i will not do the mistake of attempting to run without improper fan
