I have just installed my new zm-mfc2 fan controller but the display readout is showing my PSU is 0W lol.

Any idea how to get it to dispaly the correct number ? (Zalman HP-750 PSU btw, so should be compatable :p).

The sensors and fans are all working great tho :)

Unfortunately, given that most fan tachometers are unreliable below ~500 RPM, fan control below this level seemed to be equally unreliable. Below this level, the display reported 0 RPM but fan control continued to work down to the fan's stall point. However, the controller clearly had difficulty figuring out what voltage to output in this situation, as the fan speed tended to wander slightly at very low speeds. This caused a warbling effect that was more or less audible depending on the fan.
 
I have one of these on each pc, one with a Zalman ZM-750HP.

You have probably done this but you do have the plug from the socket that normally plugs into the psu plugged into the CVS box? The CVS box has the plug that plugs into the psu. The CVS box also has a usb type plug that plugs into the pci slot backplate which then goes to the display. For god's sake make sure you have'nt mixed it up with a normal usb cable and plugged it into one of the rear motherboard ports. You also need a molex to plug into the rear of the unit which provides power for it all to work.

Worth re-checking just to make sure.
