Hi guys,
So I just received my custom built computer the other day, and I've been having a few issues with it thus far.
After about twenty minutes of use, it will automatically shut down. Before it reaches this point, the front fan starts to make a lot of labouring sounds, which is really quite abnormal. It's fine once I turn it on to begin with.
Once I try to turn it on again, it'll shut down after about five seconds, until I leave it turned off for about half an hour, then this process repeats.
After speaking with my local technician, he said it sounded like some kind of overheating problem, as I can clearly see the fan up the back isn't rotating. This morning, I had a little bit of an experiment with it, and notice the fan up the back cannot move and this is due to expanding foam bags within the pc. They're fairly well stuck in there, so I can't move them. Being new to this whole custom built computer scene, I have no idea about these foam bags, nor have I ever witnessed them before. Am I required to remove them?
Thank you
