Cpu Fan warning
- Thread starter Noob_Dave
- Start date
I assume you mean you replaced the CPU fan, not the CPU.
Few things to try.
Ensure you've plugged the fan into the correct header on your motherboard.
Is the fan you've bought a pwm fan (it will have 4 pins on the connector).
Try the old fan again to see if the warning goes away (if it does it suggests you've got the wrong type of fan).

OK we can try to help you but you need to explain your problem in more details. I've read your post three times and I still am unclear what the issue is?
Can you make sure that...
1. Your (presumably) new fan is connected to CPU FAN socket on motherboard?
2. It is spinning?
3. What fan did you purchase? Was it just fan or whole cooler (ie, radiator + fan)
4. Could it be you have a custom PC where you need to plug-in PWM fan and not just 3 pin? (some servers have it like that). Even though that fan is spinning if PWM is not detected it will report as fan failure.
We simply need more info...

You could take a photo of the inside of your PC? - Including the position it is plugged into on the motherboard.
