Help, my comp is dying or dead

Don't run it in that condition. The CPU fan is necessary.

It can be a power supply, but I've had dust cake onto a CPU fan and stop it when it got a little damp. The dust turned to paste.

It can also be that the CPU fan has become unplugged from the mainboard fan header. Look for the two wires coming off the fan, and make sure they're plugged in somewhere.
