Hey there! I just installed my PC a few days ago and haven’t got a CPU cooler yet. I wanted to check if it would boot, so I turned it on without one. No luck—my motherboard says the CPU can’t run without a cooler. I tried hooking up a case fan to the CPU fan port, but still no signal. I’m planning to buy a cooler soon and wondering if there’s an issue with pressure or if something’s definitely wrong. Also, the CPU is running perfectly at the specs listed for this motherboard: Asus X99-A USB 3.1, Intel i7 6850K. It’s an 80 Plus Gold 1000W PSU and it shows error code 00 on the motherboard. What do you think?
On ASUS boards a 00 often indicates an issue with the CPU, so you might try resetting BIOS and re-seating the CPU along with all power cables. I’m not sure it will cause the same error without a fan, as the problem could be just the cooler not pressing properly, meaning the CPU isn’t being held in place on the motherboard at all.
Hey, I tried this too but when I flashed the bios it blinked blue for a few seconds. That seems okay then, it stayed steady without blinking and I’m not sure what that means. Since I got the combo from someone else, I don’t think that’s the issue. The problem was definitely the bios, but I still tried flashing and it worked! Thanks for the tip!
Or let someone with experience handle it. Focus on maintaining stability rather than rushing into actions that could harm the system.
