Solve : Fan speed??

Answer» OK So i Had a motherboard failure with an Asus P4P 800 SE and decided to replace it with a HP motherboard I had sitting from a hp d530 Sff. I'm not able to log into windows but my question is can I set the fan in the CMOS setting to run all the time its on? Because It seems to turn on only when the CPU is really hot But i want it to constantly run? Any help? How are you monitoring CPU temperature? How hot does it get?

I have an HP Compaq d530 CMT and it runs cool and always runs quiet. I occasionally check temperatures with CPUID Hardware Monitor.

Regarding the BIOS, I'm not aware of a setting to control fan speed but I may have overlooked it or perhaps your BIOS is different, ALTHOUGH I'm very much inclined to think your model and mine have the same BIOS because they are both d530 series systems. Here's a very detailed USER guide on the d530 series: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/11632_div/11632_div.html

Have you opened the case to see whether it needs cleaning on the inside? Is the computer sitting where air flow around it is not significantly restricted?Running your system too cold is not recommended.Quote from: Geek-9pm on October 20, 2010, 09:23:48 PM
Running your system too cold is not recommended.
Do you have a reference to support that statement? And, why is cold even being mentioned here? The post infers cold.The opposite of hot.
Everyone knows you must not let a system run too cold.
Shall I Google that for you?Quote from: Geek-9pm on October 20, 2010, 09:23:48 PM
Running your system too cold is not recommended.

This statement is REDUNDANT; doing something that is too anything is by definition not recommended. Jumping too high, flying too low, eating too much, speaking too loudly, whatever, all these are "not recommended" by virtue of the word "too", which means "excessively". If something is excessive then it is more than is (depending on context) wise or allowed or recommended. So... first define "too cold", and second state how a practical computer in everyday use in a normal environment might be run at that temperature. Or stand convicted of posting nonsense. (Shall I Google that for you?)

How did piratical and normal get into this disunion?

The post was pure nonsense from the start.
To chart with, he had a Asus P4P 800 SE ...
and decided to replace it with a hp d530 Sff.

I rest my case.
[/Diane Sawyer sarcasm]Don't get me charted about that pirate Diane Sawyer. That is a disunion that you don't want to have!Quote from: Geek-9pm on October 21, 2010, 02:09:46 AM

He had a motherboard failure and was inquiring about using a motherboard that came out of another computer. How is that nonsense? And, please don't just reply with more nonsense, as you previously have done.
Also, cold is not the opposite of hot.

Cold is the absence of heat.

Just my pennys worth.Quote from: Geek-9pm on October 21, 2010, 02:09:46 AM

Are you kind of crazy?

Thank you soybean. I'm not really happy using a Motherboard from an HP but right now I may not have a choice. I might have an Asus I think somewere with a keyboard port problem. I can unsowder the ps2 mouse/keyboard port from the dead motherboard. Quote from: comda on October 21, 2010, 12:55:08 PM
