Hi all!
About a month ago I started getting this "ERROR: CPU Fan Has Failed. PC will automatically power down in a few seconds. Service PC immediately to prevent damage to CPU". What I've found is that the fan starts AFTER the error shows up. Manually turning the fans work..to some degree(sometimes ill have to keep turning it through many restarts). My pc is hp pro 3010 mt. Upgraded graphics card to HD 5450. no other increments. This is my current fan. I've cleaned the dust. Budget is around 40$, preferably less. Really appreciate if you could tell me what to look for in a new fan, or better how to fix the current one. One post says it could be due to the bearings and that ill have to add in some lube, maybe. But i have no idea how much and what sort of lube to apply.
