If your computer is over heating, you probably have your insufficient cooling for your hardware/overclocking configuration. Lower your CPU and RAM cycles to a more reasonable rate and check if your fan works. If the fan spins, it works - meaning you had your CPU and/or RAM frequencies set too high.



If it doesn't spin, get a new fan. Simple.

You need some fan controling software. montor the temp of what the fan is on and make sure it is not overheating.



what ever the fan is monatoring is prob at the low temp possable so the fan is not kicking on full rpm. try raising the low temp fan setting and see if that helps.



other wise replace the fan.



www.newegg.com will have anything you need,
I would have to answer your question with another question. Would you know how to install another fan if you were givin one? Because you can buy one for 5 bucks or so, and if its working and then not working, its probably something wrong with the fan itself, not the computer or power supply. If you do decide to buy a new fan, all you do is open up your computer, find the fan, unscrew it, disconnect the powercord running to it, then re mount and connect the new fan. If you are competely clueless when it comes to upgrading a computer, find a friend who will do it for you, because if you have the store install it, they will charge you $20+ just to do that simple task. Good luck, and I hope this helps.
If it's the CPU fan that's having the problem, you need to stop turning on the machine until the CPU fan is replaced.



While you have the case open, consider adding a case fan for additional cooling/circulation.
Do not bother to repair them...they are priced triffle..so better buy a new one from your computer store.
Fans are cheap, just get a new one, unscrew the old one, take the power cord out. Plug the power cord into the new one and screw to the case where the old one was. And a fan will not send your pc into sleep mode.
