I have bought a ECS K7SEM 3.0 board (with integrated CPU). I want to replace CPU fan with more silent one with lower speed, but this board has CPU fan speed monitor and board switch off, when speed is lower.
Can somebody advise to me if and how is possible to disable a CPU fan speed monitoring at this board?
I have not found any such option or possibility at BIOS setup - there is only Hardware monitor section with displayed values of fan speed, CPU temperature etc.

You might be able to do so (through the BIOS) with an upgraded version of that BIOS, othwerwise, completely integrated boards like that one are cost-effective but low on tweaking ability and performance. Good luck
