Fan turned off or dead?

[chrisman10]

Hey,

I have a hp g62 Notebook. Today it just shut down and showed error(90b) or something. There was NO burning smell coming from the laptop .. it just stopped. This fan is located on the left side and it no longer works.

When you say " the fan no longer works" does the laptop boot at all, or is it dead?
