CPU thermal protection
activated by either of the
following methods:
●
A fan might be blocked
or not turning.
●
The heatsink and fan
assembly is not
properly attached to
the CPU.
CAUTION: Internal components might be powered even when the
computer is off. To prevent damage, disconnect the computer power
cord before you remove a component.
1. Ensure that the computer air vents are not blocked and the cooling
fan is running.
2. Open the access panel, press power button, and verify that the CPU
fan is spinning. If the CPU fan is not spinning, make sure the fan
cable is plugged into the computer board header. Ensure the fan is
fully and properly seated or installed.
3. If fan is plugged in and seated properly, but is not spinning, the
problem might be in the CPU fan. Contact HP for assistance.
4. Verify that the fan assembly is properly attached. If problems
persist, there might be a problem with the CPU heatsink. Contact
HP for assistance.

times, once every second,
followed by a two-second
