[RESOLVED] SiSoft causes CPU fan to STOP (very bad thing)

[KyleG]

(I also posted this in the Benchmarking Forum)

Something I dicovered today:
I downloaded the SiSoft Sandra Standard benchmarking program today to use on my system. I clicked on the mainboard information icon, and my CPU fan as well as my case fan STOP.

This is not good.

I repeated 3 times and same result every time. The fans simply stop.

I am using SiSoft Sandra Standard Version 2000.7.6.49.

I have the Gigabyte GA-7ZX mainboard with a retail AMD Athlon 750 (Thunderbird core)

I think this is a HUGE potential problem. I am not sure if it is the fault of my hardware or the fault of the software, but I thought it should be brought to everyones attention.

The SiSoft Benchmarking program can be downloaded here: http://www.zdnet.com/downloads/stori...,,000EX9,.html

Any questions or comments, feel free to contact me.
