I just got an Optiplex gx280. The reason that I got it was because after turning it on, the fan would start to speed up to the point of it sounding like a mini jet engine. I took a look at it and the hard drive is fine, so is the RAM, & the capacitors. I think that the problem is that there is no thermal putty between the fan & the processor. Also the computer won't boot. When I turn it on this is what it does:
Thanks in advance,

- It starts running
- The fan starts speeding up (Still no boot screen, or anything else)
- The fan tops speed
- A couple seconds later the computer shuts off and an amber light starts flashing (Not the one on the Mother Board)
Thanks in advance,
