Ok not too sure whats goin on with my main comp. I had it on this morning and it was fine. I hadnt used it for an hour or so and when i went to move the mouse to take it out of screen saver it wouldnt do anything.

I tried restarting and it posts and i can get to the desktop, but it freezes after like 10 sec. I tried to start in safe mode, but it freezes before I can get there. I havent installed any new drivers or anything like that. Got any ideas?
EDIT:

Ok i got it to start in safe mode. I thought it was going to hang in the same place (crcdisk.sys), but i just let it run for a while and i can get there now.

Sounds like overheating to me. Check the video card heatsink. Inspect it for dust and also for integrity - snug fit.
