Title: GA-Z97X-UD7 TH - CPU Fan does not turn on after system resume?
Post by: NessPJ on February 27, 2015, 03:28:24 pm

Hello there,

I have recently upgraded to a GA-Z97X-UD7 TH motherboard.
Everything is working fine, but one thing i noticed is that; when my system is resumed from sleep mode the CPU FAN connection will not get power.

I have a CoolIT Vantage PRO closed liquid cooling system on the motherboard and it works well (with the FAN connectors set to Always Full Speed in the BIOS).
Yet, after resuming the PC from sleep mode the cooler will not turn on because the FAN connector does not seem to get powered (this is my 4th system build with this cooler and i have never had this issue on other boards like GA-Z68X-UD7, MSI Z77A-GD65 or Intel DZ87KLT-75K).

Is there any way to fix this? Or a small bug in the BIOS perhaps?

What bios are you running? This guy was having the same problem. http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php?topic=14957.0 You can maybe email Gigabyte support and they might be able to help

Hi,
I checked and even though i bought this board new from a store... to my amazement it was still using BIOS F2!
So i updated to F4 yesterday.
I will let you know if this solved the problem.

Updating to the F4 BIOS helped. :)
