When I got home from work this morning, my PC was shut down and beeping. I have figured out that the CPU fan was running at low speed and this was causing the PC to overheat. I had smartfan enabled and it was working fine until last night. Now it appears that smartfan is not controlling the fan or the fan is bad. The fan is reportedly running at 4100 rpm with smartfan disabled and it is keeping my pc cool. I think it was running at 750rmp with smartfan enabled and the speed was not changing at all.
I was wondering if anyone knows if this could be the fan itself, or the smartfan control on the motherboard. I searched google and could not find anything (i may have not been phrasing it well).
Thanks.
