BigPoppaKev 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2004 Everytime I start up my computer I get an error that says 'Processor Fan not detected.' I know next to nothing about computers really but im guessing it is the fan to keep the computer cool and such. Is there anyway I can fix this or do I need to bring it some place?

Try checking if it is in fact disconnected? Then try reconnecting it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If not... buy a new one. If it does then the motherboard could be going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
