I think he lost power to the motherboard fan outputs. That is a separate power off the power supply right? I think maybe the square 4 pin cable - but IDK. It's an agely ABIT BP6 board...some of us used to gather on this BP6 fan forum... and it's running 2x533@544 Celerons...on WinXP SP3, extended to 2019! maybe, just maybe...it might live up to 20y?! :D non-profit org.

I'm glad that worked for you. Years ago I had a 486 DX4 running seti 24/7. They always warned that you had to have a really good fan on the CPU to keep it cool. The fan started to get noisy, then finally it quit. I didn't have a replacement so I thought I would see how long this old computer would last. It ran another year before I needed the HD for another computer, and retired it. It never did burn up. |
