Is my PC Dead?

My OS is Windows XP Pro. The computer has been upgraded with the latest
hardware available last December. It performed perfectly until now.

The computer will boot up, but will not respond AT ALL to any clicks on the
desktop icons. It will not respond to Start to show option to shut down
either. I have to turn the power off to shut it down.

I booted up three times and shut it down three times, but the fault
persists.

I remember reading of others having the same problem in the past. What was
the solution?

I am sending this from my very old faithful stand by.
