If not, please plug it in.
I hope you don't run it this way for long. It's burning up the days it will work at a some 10 times faster than it should if you are running it without the fan!

I just bought a new graphics card and a new CPU P4 3.0Ghz with hyper threading. anyways i installed the new hardware (my motherboard supports the proccessor) turned it on and wanted to check the graphics card out and got playing a game and about 10 mins later my pc shut down. i tried turning it back and it wouldn't. took the cover off and noticed that the heatsink was pretty hot. i let it cool down for a while and tried turing it back on. well my cpu fan doesn't work now and my computer runs at very high temps. and i don't know whats wrong with the fan. its all plugged in and everything. any ideas???
