Problem regarding fan failure of computer.

Hi Dina Sotto,

There are mainly two fans used in any computer.

1. Front fan  : Used to cool down processor

-> Now , If your Front fan failure occurs than  many times your processor gets heated and abnormally your computer gets shut down.

2. Rear fan  : Used to maintain overall temperature of computer.

-> If your rear fan failure occurs than  its a problem with SMPS (Swith mode power supply) because of power fluctuation.

In both of the cases I advice to change your fan by contacting some hardware engineer.

Thanks,

Sophia Taj

Problem regarding fan failure of computer.

Temperature controlling is an important  fact for  computer . Specially  maximum  researcher  are wastes  more time for controlling  temperature rather than  device characteristics for any computer. If any cooling fan is power off  then should be computer shut down immediately.

Because if avoid shut down computer  than it can be create other problem. Because Processor going to be more heat. And Heat shank could not work properly and IC of motherboard also absorb more heat from atmosphere. As a result system can be halt or restart automatically. And some information also can be lost, system file also can be lost and can create OS problem too.

Thanks

Problem regarding fan failure of computer.

If your computer has a problem with one of its cooling fan, you will have problems with the processor. If the processor is still able to operate, the performance of your machine will become slow because of the temperature on the processor. For the processor to operate at its optimum speed, it has to be at the lowest possible temperature.

There will be a decrease in the performance as the processor temperature rises. When the temperature is at its peak, the CPU will automatically shut down. On some CPUs like Lenovo, the CPU will keep on restarting. If the problem is with the cooling fan, the best remedy is to replace it with a new one.

A processor cooling fan is always paired with a heat sink and it supports select processor socket models only. There is no universal processor cooling fan that will fit any socket model. If you don’t know how to check for a compatible cooling fan, just bring your CPU to the computer store to help you find a compatible cooling fan for your unit.
