Hi, I know nothing about PC hardware, but I love my PC. Please help.
PC wouldn't start the other day - said couldn't detect keyboard, then complained of fan speed / CPU temp
I can get it started now and detect keyboard again but am concerned.
PC is saying CPU temp is 80C. Is this too hot? I have no idea how hot or not CPUs are supposed to be!
CPU fan is 1305RPM, but chassis / sys fan is only 475rpm - does that indicate it is knackered? Seems slow to me, but I know nahthing.
Have hoovered outside of case for dust, but not opened up case as inexperienced and what to leave this as last resort.
Not changed anything recently, other than installing a gamepad controller for some Steam games.
I have tried Googling answers, I have downloaded SpeedFan, but really I am just wandering around aimlessly looking for someone who knows what to do.
Please help, I am an old lady who is crying inside.
