Hi guys,
I've seen this same thread a few times from searching the issue however their solutions didn't help me.
Basically I just bought Rainbow Six Siege and have been playing it for a few days, then suddenly when i turned my PC on a few days ago I was given the "
CPU Fan error! Press F1 to resume" error.
My PC is going on 3 years old now, the specs. can be seen on my profile. I haven't changed anything in the 3 years I've had the build so I don't know why this would happen now.
I saw on other threads that the fan wasn't spinning fast enough for the computer so they turn off the notification, however i opened the case and the CPU fan wasn't spinning at all.
The fan I use is not the stock CPU fan, mine's called "
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro"
When I put my build together 3 years ago, i didn't have any thermal paste so i used what was on the stock CPU heat-sink, however i don't think this is an issue as I've been playing games for the past 3 years, and also this shouldn't stop the fans from spinning.
I went into the BIOS to see if there was any details about the CPU Fan and found under '
Monitor->Fan speed monitor' that CPU fan speed is N/A.
Various pictures of the Fan and Bios can be seen here...

I also need the PC to do my uni work as I study Computer Science and would be f*cked if it broke, especially after how much it cost
😄Many thanks,
