OPT_FAN Settings?

[Kwami]

Hello,

The manual and the BIOS don't document the OPT_FAN settings very well. What is the "Optional" profile? Also, the BIOS recognized the fan that I have plugged into OPT_FAN2 on the first boot, but not on any subsequent boots. The AiSuite III software also doesn't recognize it. Is there a way to fix that? I'm using the newest BIOS (0605), but I had the same problem with the BIOS that shipped on the board.

Thanks!

(This is all on the MVIE.)

I'll try and replicate this later on today when I'm back from the office.

It seems as though the BIOS and AiSuite III both pick up the fan if I have the profile set to "Disabled". When I try "Optional" (what does this do?!) or "User Profile", neither program recognizes the fan. I haven't tried "Duty Cycle" because it seems rather pointless for my use case.
