Compaq fan not working, overheating and stopping.

I've had my Compaq Presario CQ60 - 227ca for about 2 years now and after getting my favorite fan on this last time he stopped working. The laptop since I bought it was always heating to a high temperature, but the fan just always worked harder. Thinking that it was the fan I had replaced him and made sure that it worked before my departure. Brought it home & had the same problem I did with the other fan.

I just bought a new laptop today to replace, but I prefer to have my old one operational. Everything else works fine on it, windows can be delivered end & works, it's just something with the fan. Thanks for any idea.

Then it's one of three things. The fan blades are clogged with dust, the fan is bad or the fan on the motherboard header went wrong. You must diagnose them in that order, and you're not sure if it's #3 until you try a new fan or test the old fan outside the case or on another laptop.
