The most probable reason is Ur PC is infected with Klenz virus, please check it out.. Your HDD LED is continous blinking whether u are working or system is idle?

Try installing novell client for windows if you are connected to Novell server.

Can you ctl-alt-del to get the 'Close Program' dialog box and quit your app that way? Do you have 'Fast Shutdown' enabled, or a Plug&Pray bios? I think you need to look at these 2 Microsoft documents: Q238096 and Q202633.

did you recently reformat? otherwise easiest solution for me was to just reinstall windows from the setup cd in windows, will not effect your current system,after that it fixed it
