..........and also my monitor wont start it says no singnal dected and my mouse and keyboard dont do anything there just off pretty much and i can see a red LED in the front of my case on and thats it
At no stage did you say you actually had fixed those problems, so I figured you must have been posting from a second pc.
And yes, the stock Intel coolers on the Prescotts do sound like a jet engine, my sons pc P4 3.0 has the most annoying (fan noise wise) stock cooler I have ever encountered. Once he has enough money saved for his 7900GT I'll buy him a Zalman for his cpu, might even put a 9500 in my box and give him my AlCu Zalman.
I don't see your board in the list of non supported boards so I'd say you're good to go, just check you have enough room as per the pics on the page I've linked to below
A little advice .........
Don't use the Zalman thermal compound if you can help it, use Arctic Silver 5 or similar 99.9% silver based thermal compound (AS5 application Instructions)
hey thanks for all ur help guys i just installed the zalman fan today and holy smokes you were right intel stock fans are horrible this new fan is sooo quiet its great thank you so much guys
yeah its s fine at 115v now that i got the fan im leaving it at that and not going to fool around with it i dont want to mess anything up thanks for the help
