| 1118571 | 2010-07-13 21:46:00 | Yesterday I had my computer professionaly cleaned. Fans removed and washed etc. It is now running well and core temps are a few degrees lower. When I got it back last night I plugged everything in and booted. The boot proceded normaly until the end. Then it stopped and up popped a notice, "cpu fan error. Press f1 to resume." Pressing f1 finished the boot and everything was as normal. But now every time I boot I get the same message. Nothing appears to be wrong. The cpu fan is definatelt working. Anyone got any thoughts on, why? Jack |

| 1118573 | 2010-07-13 21:53:00 | That error appears here sometimes. But it doesnt appear now | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1118574 | 2010-07-13 21:55:00 | Should be 4 pin plug, maybe they have crossed a pin | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 1118575 | 2010-07-13 21:57:00 | They didn't plug a fan into the CPU fan header on the motherboard and the BIOS thinks you don't have a fan for the CPU. You can make the BIOS ignore this fact, look around in the BIOS. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||

Press f1 to resume." If it's overheating they didn't plug the fan in. But I'd say they plugged the fan into the wrong header on the board - possibly into the Chassis fan header instead. |

| 1118578 | 2010-07-13 22:42:00 | Yeah, fan plugged in to wrong header is most likely. What the hell is a professional computer fan cleaning service? oO | inphinity (7274) | ||
