I need some help I updated my BIOS on my GA-MA785GM-US2H because I installed windows 7 on my PC and every time I go into windows 7 the Hyper 212+ fan stops working. I would have to jump start by turning the fan, do you think that I need a new fan or not? I had the Hyper 212+ for at lease a year now and it's never done it before can anyone help me?

that is strange. has to be something affecting the cpu fan header (assuming that is where you are plugging in). try using an adapter and plugging into a molex connector, bypass that header

You really think so? Every thing I Boot into XP I would hear beeping sound because I turned the CPU fan fail warning in the BIOS, it could be telling me that the fan is about go out?
