good news ! the cpu header on my motherboard is fine !
i would have kicked and screamed if that was the problem.
bad news: my cpu fan has indeed given up the ghost...
which is weird, because that fan is like only 2.5 years old?
no big deal though ! i've already ordered a replacement fan and it should be here on friday !

i do have to get some things done until friday though, so i came up with a very chaotic solution. i just took my 120mm fan from the back of my case and propped it against the heat spreader. this is a horrible idea. i know that ! but it's only a temporary solution until friday so it shouldn't be that bad, i hope ! i just shouldn't do any gaming or compile the linux kernel from scratch...
