Posted August 6, 200618 yr Well just recently I got an BIOS error "Warning your comptuer chip fan fail or speed to low...* So I rebooted and it went away. Came up couple of other times. And the fan is making a weird sound... There nothing phyisical inside the fan so idk. I have the A8N-e and its makign realyl weird sounds now.. I would realyl apprecaite a fast repsonce.
August 6, 200618 yr Try taking the fan off and put grease and Graphite in the fan bearings. This has worked for me a few times when a case or CPU fan starts to make noises.
August 7, 200618 yr I also have an A8N-E mobo from Asus and i had the same problem after i first built my computer. Luckily for me one of the power supply cords was preventing the fan from moving. Anyway, you can take the advice on lubing up the bearings, etc. but what I would pay attention to is the heat of your chipset which you can see by d/ling one or antoher programs out there. ( asusprobe doesn't show it but I remember another "probe" that I had in the past did.) that will tell you whether the fan can wait to be repaired if you need to order something or whether your going to have to fix that fan yourself, maybe buying a new one if you're able to take off the old fan or even if you want to install a water cooling kit in your case. Best of Luck and don't fuck up your chipset unless you're willing to buy a new mobo. :wtcslap: :tear:
August 10, 200618 yr Author Okay I called Asus and they had a bad batch of onboard mobo fans. They shipped me out a replacement. Thanks for the replies though!
