    after i restat the computer like 3 times it then boots up and the fan works fine :confused:

    The idea that ia hve in my head is lack of power as im only useing the psu that came with my case..it's a 450 w not a branded name the reason i htink it's not getting anuff power is because i ahve 5 blue led case fans a geforce 6800 gs power to mobo (asus a8n32) cou (amd athlon 4200 duel core)

    Have you got Cool & Quiet enabled in the BIOS?

    And, any chance of full english posts - I had to read that about 3 times before I got it.

    Is Q-Fan on in the BIOS? It's possible that the fans are being switched off (or stalling) because their voltage is being set to a low level due to good temperatures.

    Whether it's the problem or not, I would replace it now before it blows and takes out your shiny new hardware. Pick up a Tagan, Seasonic, Enermax, Hiper or Fortron power supply of approximately 480 watts - this is more than you need, but it will give you the capacity for future expansion if you choose to upgrade. If you aren't for a while, 400W will do you fine.

    Turn Q-Fan off then, and see what happens.
