Have you tried opening up the case and dusting off the fan? This has happened to me before (I nearly had a heart attack when it did!), and after opening up the case and dusting off the fan blades, voila! It started working again. I'm a heavy cigarette smoker, so my computer is hardly in the healthiest environment for it. Periodic cleaning does help, though. YMMV, of course. :-) -- Conrad J.
