CPU fan reporting 0 RPM in BIOS?


Recommended Posts

** note - resolved, see post 4 **

 

I've searched the forums and not found this particular issue for any fan that has it's RPM measured by the chipset. When I go to the PC Health section in the BIOS, 2 of them are working, but the CPU fan indicate 0 RPM even though it is in motion sitting here on the table next to me... Fan issue? Board/sensor issue? I'll try frogging the leads I guess and see if the 0 RPM follows the fan or the board connection.

 

Thanks,

Rob

Is the fan have a speed/ tach sensor. If you have a fan that can't send a signal the mobo will not be able to read anything! Try a differant fan that you know that it works!

D'oh. When I ordered it, I didn't realize there were RPM and non-RPM versions... damn it, lol. Guess I'm in the market for a new CPU fan and can move this one to the case or something. How retarded I must be, lol.

 

Thanks for the quick answer.
