  • Thanks for the response. I’m not trained in PC repair nor is it my job but I’m pretty good at it which is why I’ve done tons of free PC work for non-profits and a little bit of side jobs fixing or building PCs for people I know.

    I actually don’t know where they were plugged in,but my son does. I was trying to teach him a bit so as I removed the screws from the fans at the front and pulled on each cable so he knew which one to unplug, he actually disconnected the old and then later reconnected the new fans, not me. I made sure he paid close attention to the pin locations, so he can probably tell me when I get home. In theory though, modern PCs should be able to boot with no CPU cooler, they’ll shut down quickly when they get hot though. I’ll look into this.
