Re: System Fan Has Failed!
Yup. Look in the BIOS.
I might be able to be more precise if you provided a motherboard model.

I've checked in the bios, can't find anything...err thanks HP :dry: btw I've got the MS-7184 (v1.X) Amethyst -M Micro ATX Mainboard.

Re: System Fan Has Failed!
You might find the manual for MSI's base version of that board useful in the future.

I can't see any way to disable monitoring of the System fan either.
However, I've got a solution for you - get a fan which has a motherboard connector. :dabs:
Re: System Fan Has Failed!
If there's a setting then it would be in the PC Health Status section.
Re: System Fan Has Failed!
Lynx: I'm not buying another fan! btw your link doesn't work!
VB: My mobo doesn't have a "PC Health Status section". :dry:
Stupid HP mobos :frusty:

Re: System Fan Has Failed!
I reckon it's possible you could short it, with a resistor in the circuit.
Not sure which pins go where, or what resistor you need, tho'.
Get a potentiometer?
Still doesn't let you know what to short, tho'.
Re: System Fan Has Failed!
Shorting the pins doesn't usually work, the pins are linked to a counter which signals an alarm if it doesn't get a minimum number of inputs per second, but that may vary on some motherboards.
Alternatively the counter may need connecting to power, again via a suitable resistor, but don't blame me if it blows your motherboard.
Just in case it does work the pins are:
1) Ground - Black
2) Power - Red
3) Counter - Yellow
You should be able to work out which is which by looking at the CPU fan connector.
