OK, so I bought a fan for my friend, you can look at it here. It's a multipurpose fan, for many different CPU's. It came with multiple adapters, but it's a 4-Pin adapter. I've had no visual, so I can't know for sure what she's doing. But nonetheless she fits the adapter, and plugs it to a port, it runs. Then she boots it, and a CPU Fan error comes on, and we found a solution to just go to the BIOS and turn it off, because the fan obviously works. Well, the Keyboard doesn't work, so she doesn't have the ability to go to through the BIOS.


  • CPU: AMD Phenom X3
    OS: Windows Vista

Any solutions will help.

She has 2 Keyboards 2 with a usb and one with an 8pin connector, like the end of the a ps2 plug, because her mobo has a port. Would she still need the ps2 adapter?
