Alright.

 

Just finished my build last night. In the process of updating drivers now, and I've ran into a few issues:

 

1. It won't boot into windows automatically. Every time I turn it on it says CPU fan error, press F1. Once I'm in the Bios I can boot from the SSD and everything is fine. Is the error the reason I have to go into the Bios? I have a Corsair GTX h100i so I just assumed it didn't recognize the cooling system and that's why I get the error? The fans on the h100i are spinning so could the water not be pumping?

 

2. I can't find GTX h100i drivers. With my old GT h100i, I was able to download a driver that allowed me to monitor the CPU temp. I assumed once I got the same program I wouldn't get the boot error anymore, but I can't find anything on Corsairs website.

 

3. Windows 10 won't go to sleep, or stay shut down. It boots right back up.

 

4. The App store won't let me download anything, every time I click on an app to download it crashes.

 

That's about it so far.

 

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

1.Did you plug the cable coming from the block into the CPU Fan header?

2.You're looking for Corsair Link, I'm pretty sure.

3. You might have to change a Wake On LAN, or AC Power Loss to Stay Off within your BIOS.

Link was exactly what I was looking for!

 

I think the reason it's going into SETUP is because it doesn't detect the CPU fan (obviously). I downloaded Link and I got this screen:

Now I'm starting to panic. I've been on my PC all morning. Isn't 26.6c bad? I can't think straight...

 

I was meticulous when putting everything together, especially the water cooler. I have the block connected to the CPU Fan header on the bottom of the board and I can see that it's still connected.

 

Ugh, I'm freaking out :(

Ok, so I went into the Bios and changed the CPU Fan to ignore and it booted right up into Windows. So that fixed that problem.

 

But...is my CPU not being cooled? I'm confused. 

 

Please Help  :(

 

 

Edit: Your CPU is being cooled. I think the CPU Fan error thing happens with watercooling setups.

26C is pretty good for idle.
