    CPU Fan error!

    Oh. I will try that and let you know how it went. By the way, I have been reading around, and some people have said that if the cpu fan exerts too much pressure on the CPU, such errors can show up? Is that true?

    Asus P5QL Pro Motherboard bootup failure

    Thank you so much for your reply. I believe the everything is connected exactly as the way before. The CPU Fan is connected to the 4 pin slot on the MB, and also the power supply has the 4-pin connection to the cpu fan slot on the MB. I'm fixing this computer with the case laying on...
