Alright, so last night I was just browsing the internet and all of the sudden my screen completely froze so I shut off my computer. When I turned it back on, the little mobo speaker that signals whether it's working or not was just beeping over and over again and I noticed the CPU fan wasn't on. The computer then turned its self off and then back on again the beeping continued and the cpu fan still wasn't working. It just kept doing that over and over again. I tried plugging the cpu fan into another fan socket to see if the cpu cooler was working and it did, but any other fan in the cpu fan socket wouldn't turn on.
So this morning I tried turning it on again and the same deal. I took the cpu fan out and and put it back in upside down and it's working fine now.
I'm afraid this will happen again, anyone got any ideas why it happened in the first place?
My computer is a pretty new build. I put it together about 3-4 weeks ago and it has been working fine up until this incident.
Specs:
I5-3570k
Gigabyte Z77-DS3H mobo
MSI Radeon HD 7770 Ghz edition
Corsair Vengeance 2x4gb ram
WD Caviar Black 1 tb
Cooler master 500w psu
Thermaltake V3 Black edition case
Intel stock cpu cooler.
