I have a new P5W DH Deluxe with an E6600 Core2 Duo. I am using the Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 PRO to cool the CPU. Sometimes when I start the computer I get a warning at or around the POST that says the CPU Fan had an error and to press F1 to continue, which I do. This fan likes to run at around 700+ RPM when the Q-fan is in the optimum setting. Is there a way to control the fan speed besides choosing performance as a setting? Can I change the warning in the BIOS to trigger lower? My CPU runs below 30C at idle with 750RPM on the CPU fan.

Thanks,

Lou

Turn off Q-fan and allow the thermostat control of the Arctic
Cooler Freezer control the fan speed.


Is there a way to turn that off in BIOS? I found the option of switching it to ignore on the fan speed readout. I thought Q-fan was supposed to adjust the speed as needed. Hmmm.

Just disable Q-Fan in bios. If the Arctic Cooler fan runs too
slow, it should be possible to replace it with a unit with a
higher mininum speed, e.g., 1300 RPM. After all, it is just a
120-mm fan. Thermaltake makes one for its version of the Arctic
Cooler Freezer 7, heatsink-cum-thermal pipes assembly.
