    Just for grins, can you plug a spare fan into the CPU fan power socket on the MB to see if that shuts it up?

    I don't really have a spare fan, but I'll take a look at re-routing the extra one I installed and see if it does quiet it up.

    Why don't you buy a new fan? Just bugging in.

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Because there's no fan there to replace. It's a bug in my system somewhere that's telling me the fan isn't running without actually realising that it's because there is none.

    I've tried everything I can think of, it's time to bite the bullet and do a system recovery. Hopefully it won't still be there afterwards. If it is, I think it's time to just buy a new mobo and cpu.
