Acer - Extensa 4210 Fan Stops at Bootup and ceases bootup??

Hi,

I have this Extensa 4210 laptop which upon bootup hangs briefly after displaying the ACER logo on startup. On close observation, I notice the fan was no longer rotating (Initially the fan was spinning then stops after ACER logo displays on screen during bootup).

Upon close inspection of the fan after opening the laptop, the fan looks intact without any damage whatsoever.

Thank you and appreciate the hints on what options you might advice me to take.

Best Regards

It may not be the fan. Try replacing the RAM first.

Will replace the RAM and provide the update here again.

Thanks.
