Motherboard shuts down
Discussion
Hi all.
I have a problem with my motherboard. It turns off after about 30 seconds. I am quite sure the problem is to do with the fan over the cpu. Because the new fan uses less current, the mobo thinks there isnt one there, and shuts down. The old fan broke, and I want to use the computer now, not wait for a new fan to arrive. What can I do to get around this. Im tempted to put a resistor on one of the cables, but which one and what value?.
The motherboard is a elite K7 SEM onboard processor etc.
Cheers
