I recently purchased an Intel 860 3ghz EM64T & Gigabyte GA-8I915G-MF motherboard. It was running perfectly but then started having problems. When switching on the machine the fan does not start. The alarm sounds that the CPU fan is standing still. After a little while i goes on. It looks as if is it struggling to turn. I saw on the gigabyte website they have a BIOS update for CPU EIST Function. I updated the bios from f4 to f7 to no avail. I was also told by some other source that it is the Smart fan capabilities of the mobo and CPU that's giving me a problem. Any suggestions?
The rest of the hardware is a ATI X800 PCI-E and a 350 watt powersuply. 2hhd's and 2 roms.
Thanks in advance
