CPU fan work work?! Asus P2B

I just bought a Celeron 633 and finally got it to work with my Asus P2B MB (with some help from this forum). The only thing is that the fan (standard Intel fan and hs that came with the cpu) is not working. I plugged it into the 3-pin "CPU FAN" connector and I tried the "PWR FAN" connector too but still no go. My previous cpu was a celeron 300a and the fan on it connected to a standard 4-pin Hard Drive power connector - which worked fine.

Is there a setting in the bios to turn on these power connectors? Or are they just not working?

I had a different fan with my cel-300a which also did not work with the 3-pin MB connector.

Maybe i can wire it into a Hard drive power cord. Any ideas on this? Can i get an adapter to connect this fan to a hard drive power cord? (3-pin to 4-pin power adapter?)

Thanks in advance.

This is odd that they do not work. Try the case fan connecter also just to see if it works or not. If none of them do then something is wrong with the board or your power supply.
