My tower PC has 4 fans:
1. CPU
2. Front case fan (blows into case)
3. Rear case fan (exhausts air out of case)
4. Power supply fan (exhausts air out of case)
I just discovered that the front case fan failed and is not spinning at all. I don't know how long it's been like this. So I currently have the case cover off with a desk fan blowing into the case until the replacement fan is received.
The failed fan (#2 above) shows as none in the BIOS so I suspect the failure is an open circuit in the fan. I also installed "SpeedFan" and it shows only the CPU fan and rear case fan with rpm values with zero rpm for all other fans.
I want to install a software that I can tell which fans are installed and will display an alarm on my computer screen if any of those fans is failing or died. Any recommendations?
PS: In case it helps, my motherboard is an Asus P8H67-V. The two case fans are PWM, 80mm, 4pin fans.
Thanks,
