• A system fan has failed.

Okay, So I have this stupid problem. I bought a retail PC a while back (HP Pavilion p6360uk) and I ended up switching the case to my previous gaming case. Now, I have to press F2 each time my PC starts due to it saying "A system fan has failed, service your PC to fix the problem". Obviously it hasn't failed I've just changed cases and it has much better cooling in all. BIOS does not have any options to disable the fan check and I have updated it, and it's an OEM motherboard so no custom Firmwares. Any suggestions?
Check the CPU fan.
[QUOTE=hTux;22658577]Check the CPU fan.[/QUOTE] It's fine.
Open shit up, see if any fans aren't spinning.
Did you use all the fan connectors that the old computer case used? If not its detecting that the non existent fan has failed. Go into the BIOS and see if there is a option to remove that warning or disable it on that fan connector.
Yeah there's an option to disable system fan fail warnings.

It's probably detecting the case fans spinning more slowly than in your old case.
