[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1603049, member: 56379"] A couple of complete guess's here: 1. Like you mentioned...could be a loose connection. 2. Since you mentioned dirt/debris..."running a bit hot". Unless you opened the computer up & did a good cleaning. Maybe things are so gunked up in there...that the fan is not running properly (gunked up with fuzz). So the fan isn't running properly...and giving it a slap either got it going or knocked/dislodged enough dirt...that it got the fan running. Got to open it up to verify. - Nick [/QUOTE]
