    Need some help/suggestions regarding computer that wont load intermittently.
    Started months ago, vista would load, CPU maxes out for 3 minutes, then windows would continue loading normally, except for error message as follows:

    RunDLL.exe
    "Error loading C:\windows\system32\wvUnLCVP.dll
    The specified module cannot be found"

    This would only occur after having pressed the reset button on the computer because computer stops loading before windows starts loading, all that appears is a flashing white cursor on a black screen, when u reset, computer loads as per above.

    Over the past couple days computer occasionally doesnt even get to this stage and says that the CPU fan has failed or isn't fast enough, error resolves on reset, this has occurred twice now.

    Of course, with the required resets and waiting for a few minutes every time vista loads, computer is otherwise fully functional.
    Upon inspection inside computer all 3 fans seem to be running fine (CPU, GPU, PSU – case has no separate fans)

    Have since put a new HDD formatted with vista, still same CPU fan error on restart. This is consistent with the CPU fan error message occuring before windows even starts to load.

    Any help is appreciated
    thanks

    Specs
    Windows Vista Ultimate (6.0 Build 6002) Service Pack 2 32bit
    Bios: Phoenix – AwardBIOS v6.00PG
    MB: Asus P5VD2-MX
    CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 6600 @ 2.40 GHz
    RAM: 2046MB (2x1GB) (Kingston)
    GPU: Nvidia Geforce 8800GS – 1141MB
    DVD: Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-111D – IDE
    HDD: Seagate SATA – Barracuda 7200.10 – 200GB
    PSU: ATX-550W

    BIOS Monitor:
    CPU fan speed fairly stable @ 860 RPM (warning set at 800)

    CPU Temp at 38 degrees C and MB at 26 degrees C

    Start up Temp set at 50 degrees C and full speed at 70dC.

    this is right after the comp has been turned on.

    -----------

    Q-Fan Controller - Enabled
    Vcore Voltage - 1.26
    3.3V voltage - 3.36V
    5V Voltage - 5.05V
    12V line voltage at 11.89V

    ----

    Start Up PWM - 60
    Slope PWM - 4PWM/degree celcius

    -----

    PSU Brand - Some Asian letters then "Sun Pro"
    - seems pretty generic to me

    Hi, is there not an option in your bios to disable detection of the cpu fan? if not try updating your bios. if no luck after updating the bios, replace the cpu fan. alot of bios's won't post unless it detects the cpu fan is running, it's a fail safe to prevent you frying your cpu.

    hi there :)

    as Mir BoBBYI986 say .. you got 2 choices disable the cpu fan detect and monitoring from bios or get a original new fan with 4 leads ( sensor lead ) ..


    have nice day ..:)

    Uh oh, to me it seems like this error indicates a malware infection. I'm not sure if heat is a factor; if so, you may have several separate issues.
