Issue with motherboard and CPU cooler not turning off. Urgent assistance needed!
You recently assembled your first computer and encountered an issue where the motherboard and AIO cooler screens activate before powering it on. This happened despite everything going smoothly otherwise. Could you clarify what steps you took and any settings or components you were adjusting? Understanding the setup process will help identify the cause. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Alternatively, some motherboards might automatically start the PC when removed from AC power and then reconnected.
It seems you're describing the fans adjusting before Windows starts and then settling once it's fully operational. This behavior is typical in BIOS/UEFI settings, where the system manages cooling and temperature control. Windows offers options to regulate PC temperature, while BIOS handles more basic thermal management. Ensure your power settings and BIOS fan controls are set appropriately. Verify that CPU and GPU fans are functioning and that airflow paths remain unobstructed. Confirm the system isn't stuck in a hybrid sleep state and that no background tasks are running when you're inactive. Double-check cooling components are properly seated and airflow isn't blocked.
