It may be because your fan's rpm went to low... you can set the min rpm lower (like 400 instead of 600) or you can set to ignore the CPU fans... - it's all in BIOS, in the Monitoring section

I just flashed the new BIOS and it seemed to fix my CPU_FAN error for now. I'll report back if anything else occurs thanks for the help. 😄

For others who may have the same problem and do not wish to flash the bios.

You can disable the CPU fan monitoring in the bios and that will prevent any error messages when your fan spins slowly.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

I have the new VII formula and I have tried a lot of things like turning off the fan monitoring and nothing works. I have a H100i and in my old VI formula, I had a setting that allowed me to go to advanced to fix the problem that I only have 3 pins on my fans. I had to do the bypass F1 thing in order to get into the OS.

Hello Mike
Go to the monitoring tab in the bios and set the cpu fan speed to ignore.
