I don't want to buy a new one because my dad is unemployed for over a year. Well, he is technically employed now, but he'll start working and getting paid in November (at least what they told him). I'll buy a whole new computer then.
It works if I open the tower case side and give it a slight push with my finger though, so I'll be using my PC with an open case side until November. I vacuum cleaned it some 3 days ago, when it failed for the first time.
Thanks for the info, dudes! I'll try the programs.

Consider this a free bump.
So that's where all those australopithecus bones came from!
NEVER VACUUM CLEAN!!, that can cause static that fries components, thats why i said compressed air can, in short bursts
if you have to push the fan to get it started then it will in time totally fail, imagine if your away from you comp and it stops, POP, dead cpu, then nothing to use
fans only cost a couple of pounds (in uk anyway) its not worth the risk is it, better to get a fan, talk it to a comp shop and ask them
