My bet is it's toast.(Bord and processor)

By the time thermal shutdown takes place, the processor can be fried.

Jump the fan to power and see if it will spin, will you, or plug in a known good fan and see if it will spin?

Fixed.

Just find a replacement mobo and cpu for cheap. :-\ I'm sure someone on here will hook you up.

Did you build the computer or did you buy it that way. If you built it then you might have a readout on the motherboard of what the problem is, mine has a display that shows codes then u just look them up in the book that it came with to see whats going on.

Fuel injected computers. Does anyone else see the paradox?

Hey quit talking ---- about the 2400+. I'm still rockin one (overclocked on the old asus a7v8x-x of course) and it's a fine proc...if you're not a gamer.

Sounds like it's fried though. Procs are cheap, try to find another socket a proc to use in the mobo. If it's good just get a cheap 3200+ and you'll be fine.

I've always noticed that AMD processors pop before intels. Almost ever time I see an AMD over heat for whatever reason, it ends up fucked. I've over heated my Intel P4 like 6 times and it just boots right the ---- up every time.

Use this as an exuse to upgrade, get you one of those fancy Duo cores!

My desktop has an old 2800+ and it's still great today and fast.
