Installed cpu fan wrong?

[GamingElitist]

Hey, this is my first build and just realized I messed up the cpu fan installation (Ik, it was dumb). I think the fan should be facing towards the front of the case, right? Will the current fan setup screw something up? Is it worth changing the whole cpu fan, thermal paste, etc. or am I overthinking it? take a screenshot

Okay, I tried booting it last night. At first I got an error saying "cpu fan speed error detected" but I think it was just because it was a different cooler, so it didn't recognize the rpm. Now it boots, but the error is "Reboot and select proper boot drive" is this because i haven't installed Windows yet? Also, one of the front case fans is not spinning, but the LEDs are on, the back fan is spinning but the LEDs is off. I have them plugged in the same way as the fan that works fully, any thoughts here? Also, when I successfully get it to boot, is there a way to check if everything is in working order and there is no flaws? Thank you a ton for your help

Yes "Reboot and select proper boot drive this appears if you have no operating system (Windows)

Get You're operating system media it can be Disc or USB it does not matter and follow these steps

To specify the boot sequence:
Start the computer and press ESC, F1, F2, F8 or F10 during the initial startup screen. ...
Choose to enter BIOS setup. ...
Use the arrow keys to select the BOOT tab. ...
To give a CD or DVD drive boot sequence priority over the hard drive, move it to the first position in the list.

It should say press any key to continue make sure you can see all you're connected drives in the bios and Windows installation will start this applies to USB installations too i', not sure about the FAN problem just make sure its connected properly check the connection again if it refuses to work Return it to the dealer
