the fans you should have in your system are as follows:

CPU heatsink assembly - comes with fan
case fans - varies depending on your case
psu fan - inside the powersupply unit. DONT EVER TOUCH THIS. Most psus can hold enough electricity inside their transistors to kill you even long after the machine has been turned off.

what you need to check upon is the fans themselves and their connections to the mainboard or to the power supply unit via the molex connectors. sometimes connections can work loose.

try this and tell me what happens.

i think that the reason for your freezing etc is that the cpu possibily getting too hot.

they're fine!!! maybe you're just running too many resource hungry programs as i've said before. sometimes this will cause a machine to do weird and wonderful things. try operating with only one or two things open and dont play the games for too long as playing games will make the graphics card get rather hot. some things do have a thermal cutout feature.:-|

JANINE...the danger of poking around in a PSU is not the "transistors", the capacitors are the real danger, they can hold a line voltage ( 110 -220 volts depending on your local) charge for months after being unpluged. :cheesy:
