Hi

I have recently added a new processor and motherboard to my PC.

However when I turn my PC on I get the message CPU Fan error.

I have check that it is connect to the correct port which it is, so I have no idea what the problem is.

Motherboard: M5A97 R2.0
CPU:AMD FX8320

Many thanks,

David

From ASUS website.

The possible causes of system showing such error message includes:
1. Onboard CPU fan connector has not been connected to 3pin or 4pin CPU fan.
2. CPU fan speed at POST stage has gone below 600RPM for Intel motherboards, and 800RPM for AMD motherboards.

If your CPU fan has low speed, or CPU fan has only 2 pin, or you are not using CPU fan connector, you can bypass this error message by entering BIOS setup screen, and set 「CPU Fan Speed」option to 「Disabled」to bypass this error message at POST.
