It's the power supply.

It might also be the power supply. Get it checked out. A homefix cannot tell you for sure.

Whut do power supplies go for. $$$?

Bc if i go home and see that BOTH fans are working fine, then i can rule out the failsafe of my comp shutting down from overhearting.

If cheap, ill just buy a new power supply and put it in, real easy.

No sense in masting money on labour for that.

If shits still faacked after that, then it needs a trip to the shop, je crois!

Even if the fans are working, here are some things you can do to keep the system somewhat cooler:

1) clean the dust out of the inside of the case and off the fans every so often (including power supply fans). dust build-up will cause extra heat, especially if it gets in-between the heatsink fins

2) place the cables so that they don't restrict airflow

3) keep the case itself in a place where it gets enough cool airflow (I had problems when my case was inside the desk, even with the door open)
