Just upgraded an old HP Pavilion with a GA8IPE1000Pro-G.. After lots of
hassle (couldn't get XP to boot with the new board even after sysprep,
repair installs etc.) I did a fresh install and it works.
Main problem so far is that the CPU fan will not slow down. I have SmartFan
on in the BIOS (updated to Version F4), and I've run EasyTune 5.
It's TOO NOISY as it stands - I can't leave it like this.
Google suggests that some other GB boards have thresholds for fan speeds on
the SmartFan BIOS options - 40C for low speed, 50C medium, 60C high for
instance. No sign of that on mine, just SmartFan enabled/disabled.
Any ideas??
