Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

 HP Compaq 8300 Serial No. [personal info removed]. 

I turned the computer off as normal, the next day turned power on and pressed the start button, two green lights and

disc player light came on as normal and the number lock light flashed once but there were 5 beeps and the lights went off.

A few minutes later the fan which was still on went in to overdrive. I left it for a few minutes, nothing else happened so I pulled the plug out. this happens each time I try to switch on. 

Any ideas?
