Yes if the cpu is getting hot due to the fan not running then the system will slow down and eventually the cpu will shutdown or be rendered useless. I suggest you take it to a repair shop and have them replace the fan asap. I read everything from the previous topic and it definatly looks like your issue is a over heating problem.

Okay, just for future reference -- should the fan always start as soon as I boot up the computer? Because right now it comes after I boot up windows. Could this be a bios issue?

The fan should always start as soon as you push the power button.
