If the Fan stops, turn off your PC or the processor will very soon overheat. It has probably done so already. Then you will need to go to the computer store and buy a new CPU Fan to replace the old one with.

If your CPU fan stops spining then turn off ur computer immediately and get a new one. If it starts over heating then ur cpu is a goner. Some times it'll be possible to operate your computer without a cpu fan.
I had an old celeron 1.2 GHZ comp. The cpu fan broke so I took it off and ran the computer without it. I had a blow hole on the side of the comp blowing air in and an air duct over the cpu blowing air out. So sometimes with good case air circulation, a CPU fan may not really be needed.

If you think..Fan is ok.it is not getting enough power from mobo Fan Header to spin.. unplug the 3 or 4 pin Cpu-Fan Connector, locate the
power+ wire (usually RED next to BLK- wire on corner) cut RED wire close to connector and isolate the connector end, splice the other end coming from the Fan.Connect Cpu-Fan to its Header with RED wire cut and isolated. now locate any other nearby Fan Header or +12V Pin to tap
spliced wire into, if the wire is not long enough you can add-extend it with similar wire and preferably place a diode in between for protection. This is
how I found the by-pass the similar issue,saving replacing culprit Cpu or Mobo.to start everything from scratch. This fix will let your CPU-Fan so
your Pc to run, however Fan Speed will be Constant to Max.Fan is now recognized and speed wil be reported in hardware monitor.Please let us know if this helps you to fix the issue. but, does any body know what is the cause of the problem..? This Fix is Provided by: TEKNOFiX - 2014

Depends on how fast is your CPU and where is the fan conected to, if the fan is conected to power suply cables then you need to change the fan, but if it is conected to motherboard then try another fan, because some computers control the speed of the fan.

If it stops spinning, TURN THE PC OFF IMMEDIATLY. If you do not, the processor will eventually melt and be destroyed. You should buy a new fan and install it, and try not to use the PC while it has a faulty fan.

And.... when you take your cpu fan off take it with you to a local computer shop so you get the right heatsink and fan.
