New CPU cooler, fan not recognized

Hey guys,

Just finished installing my hyper 212 evo into my computer on top of a 6300. When i boot, i get an error saying that no cpu fan is recognized, but the fan is plugged in and running, although very fast and noisy. Do you guys know what i can do to fix this? Please help!

thanks

Did you plug it into the CPU fan header on the mobo? If you didn't and that is what you want/need to do you can usually find a setting in the BIOS to ignore CPU fans.

 

haha i plugged it into the wrong slot, my mistake. Still new at this!
