If you have an air compressor - simply blow out the vent slots on both sides, this will 'free up' the fan, often dust and debris will lock these up.

I bet this will solve your issue.

Thanks SR. I tried that with my dad's minicompressor before I took it apart. There was nothing obstructing or a dust issue.

I have to shut it down via the power button on the case.

Did you try uninstalling the System monitor app and then running Coretemp.

You could also try Realtemp - http://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp/ or Speedfan - http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php both work well.

One thing to try is a Bios update.
Yep. Very unlikely that even 1 fan header is bad actually. Very simple circuit.

CoreTemp causes your system to freeze? That's very odd.
