Can the windows get erased or corrupted from rapid star and shut down too many times ? 
my computer has a problem with the cpu and red led lights on  to fix this i have to shut down and start from the psu but when i fix it some times the windows get erased and i have to install again .
A blue screen pops up and says Error 0xc000000f  
or my ssd is allso busted ?

Get your system fixed.

As for the error, it looks like it has to do with the boot sector of the SSD. So one of two things:

 

1: Windows got corrupted when your PC fails. You can use a Windows boot media device to do startup repair, SFC and CHKDSK.

 

2: You could have failing hardware. The SSD may not be functional ng correctly, and has a sector (I think SSDs use pages) that is beginning to fail

 

If your system keeps failing with CPU issues, it can be very hard to diagnose anything else because your CPU could be to blame.

the ssd has wear leveling count 89% and it say in perfect condition on hddsentinel . if bad cpu is possible to corrupt the windows ?? Because some times tottaly random the pc freezes you can not do anything . only restart or shut and start and some times cpu red led commes up and no responce from the screen no bios no beeps

If the CPU is lighting up, then yes it could be it. Could be RAM too, I've seen that on occasion where RAM for some reason caused the CPU issue.

 

If CPU or RAM are bad, it could cause corruption of an OS because the instructions it gets from the SSD may not be retained in memory or executed properly by the CPU, and information may not be writted to SSD correctly either.

 

If everything says SSD is ok, then it very well could be. I would still run SFC /scannow and CHKDSK in CMD with admin privileges to make sure as well.

 

I don't think your OS is being erased. You're experiencing hardware failure that is causing corruption. You've gotta try finding the hardware fault.

 

You can download and create a CD or USB of memtest86 and use that to help test memory, or you can just remove and replace with more if you have extra or spares. If that doesn't resolve itself and the CPU LED still comes on with failure to POST, then it could be CPU or motherboard at that point. You would probably be looking at replacement, upgrade, or RMA depending on the age of the system.

yes it is a 4 year old build and it has been through a lot 

Yeah. Unfortunately it might be time to take it to pasture. But yay for upgrade time I guess? Got any friends with the same socket CPU? You can always try that.

Yes i want to fix my rig and sell it to buy a new one 

do you have an idea what can i buy to fix it preferable a mobo with ddr3 slots since the rams and gpu still work

You can always try to find some used parts on Craigslist or something like that and build it and sell, or sell out the parts. If you lived near a hardware place you can always try a new CPU and return it if it doesn't fix the issue. It's pretty rare for a CPU to just go bad in my experience, unless it was physical damaged by human hands or a really bad OC or power surge.

Burned pins on psu must been a power surge also here in my place we have a lot of storms
