Default zalman vf900 on an ATI 1950xt..problem with the fan..

I just bought a Zalman vf900 cooler for my ati 1950xt, connected it and have it all setup and working, but when I boot up, it says the video card fan doesnt have power... which is halfway true, because the stock fan connects directly to the video card, where the zalman connects to the motherboard with the variable fan control module.. The zalman is spinning and working, but I cannot get past this on the system. The fan from the zalman wont fit into the connector on the video card either.

Is there anyway to bypass this failsafe thing on the card?
