DO NOT use your computer until you have replaced that power supply. The fan
that draws air through the power supply also pulls air through the whole
computer case, and is critical to good cooling. It is essential that the
computer stay cool, or components will fail. Go to your nearest computer
parts store and purchase a power supply of the same or higher wattage rating
as your original power supply and change it out. DO NOT attempt to open up
your original power supply and replace just the fan as there is dangerous
voltage inside that steel box on the order of 600 volts DC in places.
