Cleaned out my pc for the first time last. I was smelling an odd smell and after not seeing any melted cables I used compressed air to blow all the dust out. I jiggled the mesh that acts as my front filter but wasn’t able to get it out. When I plugged everything back in my fan in the front started making a loud grinding noise then quieted down a bit but was still louder than I had ever heard before. I quickly downloaded a fan controller but I didn’t know what I was looking at and my temps were fine so I tried to jiggle the mesh thinking it was in contact with the fan and the fan completely seized, it won’t spin at all, even after restarting it. I’ve shut my pc down for know and I’m afraid to turn it back on. Am I screwed? What’s the problem? What can I do? TLDR Front pc fan not spinning after cleaning and moving.
