Hello,
I just purchased an SH67H3 but got somewhat disappointed with the noise the SMART fan was generating. So I went and bought a GELID Silent 9 PWM which turned out to be very silent compared to the one included. However, the system won't power on when I replace/connect the new Gelid fan. Why?
I don't have any fans to try out except for a similar smart fan that came with my SG31G2 system. Both these fans work just fine. The SH67H3 boots as it should. But whenever I unplug the smart fan leaving no fan connected the system won't boot. Connecting the Gelid won't help either. I tried connecting the Gelid fan to the 3-pin FAN1 connection that is next to FAN2 which is used for the smart fan but this didn't help either.
The only was I can test the Gelid fan is to replace the fan *after* the system has booted using the original fan.
Thanks
EDIT: I also edited the H/W monitor setting in the BIOS and set it to "ultra slow" instead of "smart" hoping this would help but it didn't..
