Open case and look at the fan. Is it spinning? Test done?

LOL, you could have tried to be a little nicer about it, LOL.

You could always try using a hairdryer to warm up the card and see if the fan
comes on.

There is a reg hack the will force the fan on at all times regardless if

it's 2D or 3D operations. It's "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA
Corporation\Global\NVTweak\"NvCplEnableFanControl"=dword:00000003
"

Is it supposed to do that? I thought that on that card it was supposed
to be on at a lower speed during 2D and then speed up during the
running of 3D games.
