Step-by-Step Guide: Setting CPU_Fan to Ignore in ASUS BIOS

Step 1: Access the BIOS

  1. Restart Your Computer:
    • Save any open work and restart your computer.
  2. Enter the BIOS:
    • As soon as your computer starts booting up, press the Delete key repeatedly until you enter the BIOS. On some systems, the key might be F2 or F10, so check your motherboard manual if needed.

Step 2: Navigate to the Fan Control Settings

  1. Locate the Advanced Mode:
    • Once in the BIOS, switch to Advanced Mode by pressing F7 or selecting the option on the screen. This mode offers more control over hardware settings.
  2. Find the Monitor Tab:
    • Use the arrow keys to navigate to the Monitor tab at the top of the screen.
  3. Access Fan Speed Settings:
    • Under the Monitor tab, look for Fan Speed Monitor or a similar option related to fan control.

Step 3: Set the CPU Fan to Ignore

  1. Select CPU Fan Control:
    • In the Q-Fan Configuration, find the setting for CPU Fan Speed. It might be listed as CPU Fan Control or something similar.
  2. Change the Setting to Ignore:
    • Use the arrow keys to highlight the CPU Fan setting.
    • Press Enter to modify the option.
    • Change the setting from its current state (e.g., Enabled, Normal, or PWM Mode) to Ignore.
  3. Verify the Setting:
    • Double-check to ensure the CPU Fan Speed is now set to Ignore. This will prevent the BIOS from generating alerts about the CPU fan.

Step 4: Save and Exit

  1. Save Your Changes:
    • Press F10 or navigate to the Exit tab.
    • Choose Save Changes & Exit and confirm the action. This will restart your computer with the new settings applied.
  2. Reboot Your System:
    • Allow your computer to reboot and load your operating system as usual.
