Title: [SOLVED] Retarded CPU fan is retarded.
Post by: Leon. on February 12, 2010, 10:20:39 pm: I'll make it short for you, I'm not writing a book :D

I start up my computer, CPU fan's all "bbbRRRHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" forEVUH! Then...some big ass triangle thing which I've yet to identified shows up, and text says "CPU Fan error! Press F1 to continue". So I press F1, open my case, and check my CPU fan. I fiddle with the wires (and cutting my finger on the fan to the left side multiple times) and managed to temporarily fixed it. I looked through the blades of the fan, and notice NO WIRES were touching the damn thing on the inside, let alone the outside. So, anyone mind helping solve my issue that pisses me off beyond belief?

1: Wires problem most like voltage in not enough
2: Dust?
3: you might have to buy a new one...

Make sure you have your fan pluged into the corrosponding place on the mobo

Post by: dtlove on February 14, 2010, 01:06:32 am: I had an old Toshiba Laptop, and the fan on that was noisy, It was catching on something, and it had dust and Grit in it.
We just got a new Fan, we did something to it which kind helped for a while, but not for long, I cant remember but when I do I'll post it.

check if the fan is pluged it and placed well if yes then you need to check the dust if there is no dust then change it :D

Post by: Leon. on March 11, 2010, 11:58:38 pm: Tried all of the above, even went through the effort of taking the fan completely out. I wasted all that time, only to figure out that the low fan speed was a result of the lack of lube... I happen to have another computer, although it EXPLODED, the fan still worked fine. Problem solved.
