Emergency

Okay, someone tell me what this means, or rather, what to do about it:

I boot up the computer, it says "CPU fan failure."

I boot it up again, and it says "Previous fan failure. System battery is low."

Is there some (relatively) easy replacement for both of these, or do I need to start selling kidneys pricing new computers?


ETA: It's a desktop. Yes, given that this is a possible overheating issue, I am treating this like an emergency.

Desktop.

I know, that's why I'm trying not to run the computer with potentially a bad fan--I'm trying to find out what to do and then shut this thing down fast as possible.
