By Pass Power supply Fan connections??

[dalfollo]

i have my PC open and while doing some other clean up and slight upgrades, I decided to replace the fans on my Power supply

This is a Herolchi HEC350-LD bought for a an AMD 1.0Ghz system about 3 years ago.

I have opened the unit and there is a 90mm fan (blows from case to PSU) and a 80mm fan that blows from PSU to the outside

they were both connected to a 1.5cm square circuit board with two pin connectors (one for each fan)

There is a black and white wire from the 80mm exhaust fan for rpm sensing

My question: i have removed the fans from the small circuit board and wanted to make sure that the PSU will still power up....i wasn't sure if it is typical that if i connect the fans to a fan controller, the PSU will not 'see' the fans hooked to it's internal PSU and think they have failed and won't start the PSU


I suspect that i can install my fans and connect them directly to my fan controller...and the PSU will not know the difference

thanks for any feedback

so what's stoping you from trying it yourself?

fear of frying something....or to much beeping when i power up like just happened

i powered up and the lights came up and many beeps...and it shut down automatically...

i need to check my wiring.

Your PSU doesnt beep.

Your psu should be fine. Somethine else has gone wrong.

So i look up the four beeps and generally it says i am screwed (motherboard/cpu failure)....but further reading came across a suggestion that I clear my CMOS, which I did, and i am typing from my PC which has apparenty successfully come through several changes...

thanks for the assist....now i just need to add a couple drives, button everything up and i am and i am back on top...
