like, i dont know if you remember, but i posted a post a few days ago saying that when i touch my box, it goes off.

now i think this has something to do with it. my keyboard slammed down on my box one day and my computer turned off.

now when i turn the computer on it makes this weird fan noise. but i shut off the computer, tap the fan a little (cpu fan) and turn it back on and it is working fine.

do you think this could be damage to the hsf, or possibly the motherboard?

i dont have anything else to test it with :(

let me know what you think could be wrong.

This is like three months old though :(

And the north bridge fan is only a month old.
