Trouble with computer

Recommended Posts

Everytime I start up my computer I get an error that says 'Processor Fan not detected.' I know next to nothing about computers really but im guessing it is the fan to keep the computer cool and such. Is there anyway I can fix this or do I need to bring it some place?

Try checking if it is in fact disconnected?

 

Then try reconnecting it?

As he said... make sure the fan is plugged into the motherboard properly. If it is... keep the case open and start the computer to see if it spins up. If not... buy a new one. If it does then the motherboard could be going.

I get the same message. But if the fan was not working, wouldn't the computer just shut itself down? Because the CPU heats up really fast. -Jim
