Fan problem?

I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago. PC boots up, loads fine. Moments later, LOUD whirring noise. Lasts for maybe 60 seconds, dies off. That was two weeks or so ago.

This morning, get it again. Same characteristics. Fan issue? Seems to be running warm @ the core, doesn't it? I've seen it as low as 44.

I rebooted, and now core says "48"...now down to "38."

Hmmm.

40 or lower at idle would be good. You see to be running a bit above that. Does sound like a fan problem.

now @ 42. What would cause it to jump like that and go back down, 2 weeks apart?

It sounds like the fan is going. When working properly temp is ok, when not running properly the temp increases.

My brother picked up a computer that had that problem, he simply took the fan top off, put some grease where it spins, and put it back together and it's fine.
