Well, it looks like when I added the fan, I somehow reset the BIOS Jumpered settings. C1E and the Watchdog had been re-enabled. Does that happen when you remove the power plug from the power supply?
Anyway, it boots fine now. Can i tell you how much I hate jumpering the BIOS. With the 8800 card there and the IDE cable running over it, it's almost impossible to get to it. But it's done now.
So, I did a quick test with Orthos. Got it running with the settings in my sig, and my temps quickly went to 54C. I turned on the big freakin' 250mm fan so air blew in, and the temps went up to 55C.
Hmmmm...
I reversed the huge fan, and the temps went to 55C.
Sigh...
It seems to have almost no effect. Except that I've been running Orthos while typing this response, and the fan seems to get loud from time to time. Is this fan just worthless? Help please...
