My system : DU 4.0D
1x alpha 4000/4 MB CPU
256 MB RAM
Suggested solutions ;
1- look at the CPu fan and if not working replace it, Moreover check the
cable between the fan and motherborad
2- call the Compaq support;
3- look at SHOW POWER at the SRM console
I have checked the fans with
SHOW POWER
command ath the SRM console, but I got ;
Power Supply good
System Fans good
CPU Fans good
Temperature good
-----QUESTION -------
So if this is true then My fan should be working, Can I trust this output ??
Or should I open my Box and see the fan...

hello admins,
today I have seen that our alpha 4000 system has been shutdown !
power button was in pressed state, but front panel indicator has no
electricity ( disks were on !)
I have played with plugs ( at the rear end) and it started to work.
Then I have seen it has been crashed ! I have got the following output with
dia
Question : Can I be sure that, this is the result of CPU fan problem ? Or is
there any other reason ?
Thank you for your help !
