Hi guys

I had a call from a friend earlier who has built a media center out of an old mobo (asrock 775dual 880pro) and an E5200 (i think). The problem is the stock fan was too noisy so he ordered himself a low profile AC freezer 7, this is where it gets confusing. The stock fan works fine just a bit loud but when he plugs in the freezer 7 the fan spins for a minute or so then stops swiftly followed by the PC shutting down. He sent the fan back and received a replacement today, and has got the exact same thing happening again. Im hoping to get other to his place Sunday to have a look see if its a bios setting or something, but has anyone heard of something like this before or have any ideas what it could be?

Many thanks
