A friend has an Emachine that stopped working after a power outage. He replaced the CPU with one athat was faster, as he thought it blew. Afterwards he started it and got a message that the CPU fan was bad then it shut down as if the CPU overheated. When I took the CPU out in the first place It didn't have a fan, just a heatsink. Could the faster processor require a cooling fan and not just a heat sink? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
