I plugged the fan into the sys_fan 1 header on my MSI A55m-p33 motherboard and noticed that it didn't spin, so i went into the BIOS and that said that it wasn't spinning, even when I set it to 100%. Do I need to install something? Or... Flash the bios? I hope not :( Also the fan is a rocketfish 120mm fan. oops it worked after true power cold booted
Do not hotswap any parts inside any PC,
unplug the PSU AC cord from the AC wall jack
wait 15 min, then worn on he PC.
hot swapping parts, is never wise. (PC rule not true on servers)
fans are BIOS controlled do not flash blos on a whim.
to make BIOS find a fan any fan or ram, etc.
old boot it from no power at all, AC not connected
then connect fan or other things, drives, ram etc.
then put back AC power
the hold power button for 10 seconds and release
now bios can do its job, to PnP all devices on the mobo,.
learn that the PC simply turned off is not off
+5vdc, standby power is there, all the time so learn to make it go dead first, or blow up things you will.
the fans are not hotswap rated, at all. nor ram nor drives.
yes sata drives can be hot swapped if all 4 things are correct.
and are not here. on my real server yes.
learn to service PC safely.

Hello here is the homepage:

Here is a list of beep codes:

Tree beeps means you have a ram module failure, or not inserted correctly.
This mainboard uses DDR3 ram, up to 16 gb.
Try to start with only one module at the time.
Try also to check the manual:
