I recently noticed that the fan on my BFG Ti4200 64mb APG8x sometimes
does not turn on. First that came to mind is a broken fan. I shut the
computer down, took the card out, cleaned it, then put it back. The fan
came on. I thought maybe it's on when cool and somehow heat stops it.
Then I started seeing the correlation between a reboot /startup (fan
always come on) and an unsuspend (fan off). Immediately after
unsuspend, the fan will come on for a few seconds then turns off. So
something is signaling it to shut off. The fan has no connection to the
motherboard, only to a 2 pin connector to the video card. Any
suggestions?
Computer is a SOYO SY-KT600DRAGON +V1.0 w/ AMD XP 2000 running Windows
2000.
