I had a system do a similar thing cause the fan get it's power via the 
disk drive power cables, and if the wires are put in a certain position, 
the fan quits working. At any rate, when I rebooted, i got a "Power 
Managemenr failure" from the BIOS, checking it out revealed that the CPU 
was roasting at a good 253 degrees, while running. Luckly it didn't break.
