Hey OC'rs.. New on here and have a small issue that maybe someone else has had or it could be a mobo problem.

I get no readings from the Chassis Fan sensor under Asus Probe and also there appears not to be any way of reading the PSU fan rpm even though there is a connector for it!! Anyone else having the same issue?

current BIOS 1007-003

cheers

Ket

umm.......you have actually plugged the 3pin connector for them up right?

ncsa

errrr... yes as the are key locked. When trying the CPU or Chipset connectors the fans in question show up so I know it is not the fans os either a BIOS issue or the mobo ....

Ket

all my fan headers work fine on my A8N SLi dlx, when i have a fan header connected to them that is, uknow, that lil thing that plugs into the mobo, each header that has a specific task its supposed to be used for, for example, chassis fan header, it wont give a reading unless you have a fan plugged onto that header.

dont mean to make u sound dumb but it kinda sounds like your expecting the fan headers to give a reading when theres nothing connected to them

ncsa

Are you saying that you have an A8N-SLi Deluxe mobo and the fan rpm readings are OK for all 4 fans (ChipSet / CPU / Chassis / PSU) ? What BIOS version are you running?

Ket

runnin 1006, was using the latest beta but it didnt solve my problem so went back to 1006. that beta doesnt even look to have any fixes, at least not what i saw when i nosed around doing things in the BIOS, oh well, the story could be worse, my SLI-D has horrendous compatability issues with memory, DFI really needs to fix thoughs problems pronto.

i have similar issue too first no reading from chipset fan and then the chipset fan totally died.

so does PC Probe show that your chassis fan is ok with a true rpm reading? What about the PSU.. have you ever seen this show up in any software reading?

Ket

i wouldnt worry too much, its only a dodgy sensor, its not going to affect the board, and built it temp sensors arent all that great anyway.

ncsa

what I am trying to establish is if my board has faulty speed sensors for the Chassis and PSU fans, in which case I will RMA it before I start to mod the board.... hence my post to see if another A8N-Sli user has the same experience.

EDIT: Ok... I did not make clear which chassis fan, this is #2 as #1 is OK in reporting ....

Anyone know how to read Chassis 2 and the PSU fan speeds from the mobo?

Thanks
