CPU fan spins, shuts off, PC will not start up

CPU fan spins, shuts off, PC will not start up

Unfortunately, you are describing one of the classic symptoms of a failed motherboard. The biggest hint being No Beep Code. I am aware, in fact I have one machine that exhibits such, some computers do not have a Beep at POST but if it did in past and now as you troubleshoot it and it does not, dead motherboard most likely.

I hope not...may be some other issue

The problem is with your fan. It should work if you spin it manually with your finger or blow on it to make it spin. If that is too labor intensive, you could set up another fan next to your CPU fan to keep it running. Cheers!
