ykk Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ykk Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 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"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glowy Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 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.
