Angry Fan stops 5 or 6 seconds after powering up
Problem with my Compaq desktop today. When I power up the comp the fan to the power supply comes on as well as the fan that cools the cpu. It stays on for about 5 seconds then everything shuts down. I replaced the power supply and it does the same thing. I remove the memory and power up and the fans stay on but with no memory nothing else really happens. I tried putting one of the 256 mem in slot by themselves get same result with power shutting down after about 5 seconds. Any ideas on this one?

CPU is suspected. No video? No floppy is read? No clock up?

cpu sounds about right. make sure the cpu fan is connected right, it could be shutting down from overheating
