Case fan does not spin
cooling fan located on the back of my pc isnt spinning. Plus this pc i just bought 4 days ago, however the fan randomly come son during a reboot and then doesnt work. what could it be thats causing the fan to work then to stop spinning?, or what should i do?...and my audio on my pc is acting weird..movement with the mouse or keyboard, or any loading of anything possible. it would cause static and cracking, its getting annoying. check the link below, hopefully the guy isnt right. any tips would be great thanks.

well personally if it were mine i would take it back to the place i bought it, assuming you bought it at a store, breaking into it and messing with it could void your manufacturers warranty, and the fan problem may not be a problem, you fan could be regulated to kick in at certain temps, i know the newer compaq presarios are set up like that. and what kind of computer is it?

It's probably the PSU.

Its likely a thermally controlled fan, once the motherboard or cpu temperature breaks a certain threshold it kicks on.

But don't thermally-regulated fans usually spin continuously at a low RPM, and then rev up when temps go too high?

On my A64 system I have the fan stay off until a certain temp. It gives me a CPU Fan Failure! warning when I start up and I have to press F1 to continue, but the fan doesn't spin up unless I'm doing something fairly intensive.

Software and OSs like Vista rarely (if at all) affect the fan failing to spin. It has to be a hardware problem.
