Hi All,
I'm sort of new with all of this, but I'm having a problem with the fan on the MB. When I turned on the computer today, I could tell that the fan speed was really high, but then it went really low. Every 15 minutes or so, the fan would try to increase in speed, but go back to being really slow.
I believe its not the fan on top of the cpu, but the fan next to it. I think its the chipset fan?
I checked the bios settings for the temperature to be:
Sys Temp: 32 C / 89 F
CPU Temp: 60 C / 140 F
PWM Temp: 44 C / 111 F
CPU Fan: 0 RPM
NB Fan: 0 RPM
SYS Fan: 2900 RPM
My CPU specs are:
Abit IC7-G MAXII Socket 478 Intel 875P Intel MB
Intel P4 3.0Ghz Prescott 800Mhz
2 Gig DDR PC 3200 (4 512 DDR SDRAM)
WD 240 Gb HD (2 120 SATA)
From other posts within this forum, it seems that I need a new fan? I'm not sure which fan is causing the problem though. Does anyone have any suggestions on a fan if this is the problem?
Thanks in advance,
