CPU fan causing shutdown

before the computer has even booted up.

I did a search and could come up with nothing that sounds like my problem so please forgive me if this problem has been addressed before.

I have an HP pavilion a815n desk top computer, the cpu fan has been runnin non stop so I did as I have done to many times before, opened it up and cleaned all the dust bunnies out of it i did take the CPU fan off this time(i have before but not everytime) there was just so much dust in there it was caked on, put it all back together and plugged the fan back in (yes in the right spot), after hooking it back up and turnin the power on the fan started as it usually does on boot then the screen came up and then the fan like kicked into hi gear and shut the pc down i have tried numerous times and everytime is the same. any sugestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
