New Rig- CPU fan error

8 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/new-rig-cpu-fan-error.158511/

Guys i built my killer rig today!!
But it has started giving problems from the second boot :cry:

Heres my config
i5 2500k
asus p8z77 v
asus gtx 670
seasonic 620 w psu
gskill ripjaws 2*2 GB
Corsair carbide 400r
seagate 160 gb.

whenever i start the pc it gives a CPU Fan Error Message and gives me the option to press F1 to go into setup.
Once i press F1 it takes me to the EFI BIOS where i select my hard disk and the pc starts normally and works normally!.

I rechecked all the connections. please tell me what is wrong with my system!

check the fan? is it running? try anther fan on the same point.

Yup its running fine but still i am getting this error and i forgot to mention this is the stock intel hsf i am running for a few days till friday perhaps then putting the Hyper 212 Evo

try some other fans....
also check the lower rpm limit for cpu fans in bios...

^^
Umm how? doen't the heatsink have only one fan?

err...connect any other fan in the header.

^^
Just found out my problem I had put the CPU hsf in the CPU_OPT header bymistake.

Thanks sumon your advice on changing the fan connected to the header made me realize what i must have done \

Thank you! :-D

^^hehe...enjoy!!!
