Either your CPU cooler is bad (the pump) or the sensor on your motherboard is bad, which is much less likely. How can you touch the processor while you're using it?

I mean i switched of the pc and removed the cooler and ckecked it ...it didnt take long ...i will buy a stock heatsink today and check it today

I don't think your temperature sensor on your motherboard is bad because you are getting blue screens which indicate that the processor is actually reaching those temps. It's probably a probably with your cooler. Even if your radiator fan is running, the pump that moves the liquid around might be broken.
