Hey, so I'm kinda retarded lol. While opening my PC case, I forgot that the Fans that are attached on the side of the case unplug if you take the side panel off (duh). So I tried plugging them back in and my motherboard (in sig) started beeping. Does that mean I'm plugging them in wrong or is it just mad because I'm trying to plug the fans in while the system is on?!?! If it meant I was doing something wrong, then what exactly was my mistake? I see the fan cables say 'fan 01' and go all the way up to 5, does that make a difference when plugging in or can I just plug them in into any plug?

pretty sure it's the motherboard just saying it's disappeared most fan plugins have the warning alert if it feels like the fan is dying. Might just think they were dying off.

So you think it's ok for me to just plug them back in no matter the cable?
