fan's going! When the fan was on the way out or cluttered with dust and debris the warning would then be seen before the cpu overheated.

it also has 3 cables going to that connector i gues?
anyway's.. it could be that the original Fan had a lower resistance between 2 pin's,.. and this one's resistance is a lot higher. the motherboard could look on the 2 supply pinn's, and measure a resistance there.. if the resistance is low enough, it sees it as if a Fan is connected, but if that resistance is too high, it sees it like nothing is connected. since it gives an error about no CPU fan, and not something like CPU fan rpm too low. anyway,... if the fan is blowing, and moves a decent ammount of air, youre fine. and im pretty sure you can disable the fan test in the bios somewhere

ohh,just looked at the old one.It has 3 pin connector,but from the fan goes only 2 wires and right before the connector the wires split to 3 wires.
And the new one has 3 wires all the way: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowIm...Fan+%2D+Retail |

then i assume the old one has the 3rd pin grounded.
well... you have to go into the bios,.. and im sure somewhere you can disable that error. but I wouldnt worry about the error... its just annoying, thats why you should disable it

You won't have to worry too much about that there. When first powering up today the cpu fan failure message appeared here. I simply went into the bios power section and turned it off there. If you know the cpu is running normally simply disable the alarm there.
