If your fan is trying to start up but won't, your system is going to give you a warning and most likely shut down. Make sure you have good connection for fan power and that it is clean and can turn freely. You may want to cosider replacing the fan.

    Check all you fans and heatsinks for operation and clean out dust and lint. If you do alot of gaming or run computer hard you may want to add a fan.
