April 5, 200521 yr Hi! I have a problem.When my computer has been on for a couple hours, it restarts. After i turn it back on there comes a message saying the system is up and running after a serious problem. If I don't wait a while before switching it on, it will restart again after about a minute. What should I do??P.S: I have a broken fan, could that be the problem?
April 5, 200521 yr P.S: I have a broken fan, could that be the problem?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>If this is your CPU fan this is most likely your problem!CPU's and heat don't mix
April 5, 200521 yr Author yeah, my one cpu fan is down and the other is poor. But would it then say "Your system is back up and running after a serious problem"?
April 5, 200521 yr That's just windows saying it had a critical/unrecoverable failure, created a minidump (if configured to do so) and rebooted.I think it's adviseable to replace the CPU fan ASAP before your CPU is toast.
