Eh? The fans come on full blast but nothing else happens. The hard drive does nothing so I don't know how I can check for anything I'm afraid. Nothing is unplugged so... It has been unhappy and very slow for weeks with a hard drive error popping up on the weekly diagnostic check so it could simply be a dead drive. Six or seven years is not bad for a base level home use machine that's on for most of the day every day.
