Hi all.
I came home to what I think, is many people's worst nightmare: my 3 kids bouncing around my office with my two year old happily
pressing buttons on my keyboard with the computer in hung restart mode with something like:
"Hit F1 to go into BIOS, HIT F2 to restart normally."
Note: Computer case was not moved around.
After putting my kid on the floor, I hit f2 to restart normally and am wondering if I should have done that, because now my CPU fan is SUPER DUPER loud. It just won't slow down. The CPU fan is somewhat new, installed two weeks ago by my trusty local computer shop.
I went into my BIOS and tried to find some kind of fan control and could not. I did do a "load defaults - save and exit option" no change. I previously had no fan control software installed on Windows 7.
I tried installing speedfan and after watching a couple youtube vids and playing with settings... Doesn't seem to change anything.
Any help would be great, I really just have no idea what my child did or if it is something else altogether.
Relevant Specs:
Windows 7
ASUS P5Q Deluxe Mobo
3 ghz Dual Core
XIGMATEK HDT-S963 CPU fan - no native fan control software - PWM - installed two weeks ago.
Idle run temp: 35C - internet mild use temps - 40C (with the fan at 2800 rpm instead say, 1200rpm)
