    Hi Ben, It is not a soundcard related problem. When I power up the PC it performs the POST ok but then a few miniuts later there are 2 beeps and the CPU fan shuts down and the PC turns off. It is an ASUS motherboard P55800VM

    Hi It is an ASUS P55800VM motherboard. I suspect it is the CPU chip itself. The PC performs the POST and then a few mimiutes later there is 2 beeps and the CPU fan shuts off and the PC turns off

    This sounds more like a mother board problem and not soundcard related. Please re-submit to appropriate area. Thanks

Sounds like the processor is getting an overheating code and shutting the system down or the processor is cooked and can no longer function. If you are trying to get an intel cooling fan off an intel chip, there should be four posts holding the fan in place, these posts turn 90 degrees and then when all four are turned , pull the fan off the mount. If yours does not have the four post mount, then it may have clips on either side of the heatsink, these should just be pried away from the mount and the heatsink will be free. If the heatsink is stuck to the processor, you will need a flat plastic pry tool to wedge under the lip of the proc and heatsink to separate them.

My acer asipre 4739z laptop starting after a few minutes not work. fan is running battery is ok
Please describe a list of events that takes place from the time the ON button is pressed until the screen goes OFF. Attach an external monitor and press the Function key with the screen key to transfer video. If monitor responds the video is OK but screen is BAD. Then replace Screen. If Monitor does not show video then problem is probably a thermo problem. To correct video chip overheating do the following; First ... Remove Battery. Remove CPU and Video Heatsink and Fan. Clean dust and lint that is blocking airflow in heat transfer grill. Clean dust from inside fan. Clean old heatsink grease from Heatsink and from Video chip and CPU.

Hp rp5000 shuts off without warning
do not turn on your pc until you complete the next steps you may damage your pc in a critical way CPU is running to hot remove the fan you will find a large silver chip should either be covered in white paste or silver paste if this substance is hard clean off with contact cleaner( do not remove the chip) also clean off the bottom of the fan in the same way go on eBay buy some thermal grease comes in sachets or syringes whit or silver which is the best use one sachet or one syringe cover the chip evenly replace the fan boot up if this still happens then you may have cooked the CPU or mother board

I want to remove the whole cooling system and fan on my motherboard and change it to a new one. How do i do?
Hi sampeb300,

Regarding to your Problem here is the Step by Step Procedure,


Step 1: Turn off your computer, Please remove the power cable to ensure the flow of electricity is gone.

Step 2: Use an anti static wrist strap to safely ground your self.

Step 3: Remove the Cables connected from your fan to motherboard. This is usually a 4 pin cable, depends on the type of your motherboard.

Step 4: Unscrew the Fan from your Pc Case.

Step 5: Vice Versa in Installing just do the procedure,


Hope This Helps,

For removing the cpu fan. remove the cables connected to the motherboard then remove the fan from the cpu chip, now always remember in installing a new cpu chip always apply a thermal compound before locking the fan to the chip.

Cpu not heating, ite chip getting very hot ,no display
If the fan on top of CPU is dirty, dusty, damaged or not connected properly,it could cause CPU to overheat. The Computer should switch off automatically to prevent damage to CPU (they can burn out very quickly if not cooled properly!!!)

1. Is the fan connected properly to motherboard?
Check cable running from fan
2. Is fan dirty or dusty?
Use a small brush or can of compressed air to remove dust off fan. Never use a normal household vacumn cleaner-this can create a static electric discharge which could damage components.
3. Is fan damaged ie does it spin when powered on?
Replace fan with similar make and model

Hope this helps. Thanks for using Fixya

Toshiba Satellite 1005-S157 shuts down periodically by itself. Replaced fan/heatsink. Still shuts off.
you need to check a few things... when the fan/heatsink assembly were replaced, did you make sure that the thermal pads on the CPU and GPU are NEW/Good.... Make sure that the Heatsink GPU pad Firmly sits in the chip....

You can test the thermal controller by using a hair dryer or heat gun.... Point it onto the heatsink pipes and see if your fan spins when the pipes get hot, then remove and see if the fans slow after a minute...

You might have faulty RAM or Misseated RAM... Pull The RAM chips and reseat them...
Also Make Sure Your CPU Is Locked Down....

Periodic Shut Downs Can Be Caused By Quite A Few Different Things...

Typically it's due to Thermal Damage
Though Failing RAM or A Failing Hard Drive, Overheated Video/GPU Chip, Or Even Failing CPU can as Well Cause This Issue...

Toshiba Tecra M3 Laptop keeps freezing and shutting down, Can't even do Fresh Install on New Hard Disk Without Freezing, Have Replaced CPU Heatsink Compound.
What made you suspect the compund? You're probably right though. The fan has died or is too slow. The CPU and the video chip are what the fan is protecting. It might require a new CPU chip and fan. If it's the video chip, then a new mother board is in your future.

Good Luck

Emachine t5230 cpu fan too fast
Hi orinzelenak,

This may seem like to simple, but try checking to see if the technician plugged the fan power supply into the correct pin for it. It sounds like the fan is plugged into a external plug directly from the power supply and not into the board, which would control the fan speed for you. Give a look, and maybe it's just that simple.

Good Luck

Cpu fan noisy/chip fan fail error messages
pils,

Yes. This sounds like a fan issue. The noise often comes from bearings failing within the fan. Also, a failing bearing can make things harder on the motor as it brings the fan up to speed. This is likely the reason that you see increased warnings during the fan speed check while booting because it comes to speed more slowly as bearing wear increases.

I give this a 90% chance that your CPU fan is causing the issue. Since a decent CPU fan will cost you ~$20 online, it's not much out of your pocket if you happen to uncover another culprit.

I'll keep an eye on this post. Let me know how things go.

Hi, have you tried removing the CPU and using a Air Jet Spray can to clean all contact pins and pin holes? The problem sounds like a loose chip. So also check all on board chips are seated, including RAM chips. Air spray can be bought from most Computer stores. Goodluck mistyman
