The battery is only like a month old and it was running for the last several days (16 hours on, 8 hours off). I don't think that is the problem but I will run up town to pick one up today--I hope.

Did you ever find a fix to this issue? I am having the exact problem with my computer, but I'm on my SEVENTH CMOS battery since the issue began. I'm averaging around 10 to 11 days where the computer...

I sent my K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard to MSI and they sent me back a new one that had both the noisy fan problem (although it is installed backwards and plugged into SYSFAN instead of NBFAN port) and...

"although it is installed backwards and plugged into SYSFAN instead of NBFAN port" So did you leave it like that? or plug it into NBFan?

I have a side intake fan plugged into the SYSFAN and the Northbridge fan is plugged into the NBFAN jack by way of a 3 pin extension cord I had on hand. Because the fan was installed backwards, the cord...
