But my mobile (attached with data cable for network purpose) does not show that net connection is detached. I have to whitch off power supply. The problem happens while not surfing net or surfing net both the occasion. MoBo light remains on. CPU fan remains on.
1. I tried with using good quality UPS.
2. I tried with different rams.
3. decreasing system load.
4. Checking temperature with speccy software (35 - 40 degree)
5. Used various antivirus.
6. Installing XP only, Seven only, XP & 7 dual booting.
7. Changed monitor.
8. Updating MoBO drivers.

The problem occurs randomly. sometimes 7 or 8 hours continuously with no problem, sometimes within 2 / 1/ half hour problem arises. Sometimes at the time of booting problem arises.
