Well thanks for the advice. You know "pay no attention to pc probe it's a pos monitor". Or the people out there that did not say anything. Well now I have a dead celeron 733. I made the mistake of leaving the room for a half hour and when I came back the cpu fan and case fan where stopped and the power was still on. Well lets just say I could have boiled water on that chip. Its dead and now I have to spend more money on shipping to get a replacement motherboard and still have to contact Intel to see if they will honor their warranty. I did not even oc the chip and it's dead. Well thanks again for the advice.
 
question

ummm...I dont get it.

I can understand your CPU fan failing, but the CASE fan also failing SIMULTANEOUSLY?

Does your Power Supply atleast work now?
Does it power up?

Are you sure you did not have some kind power surge or something.

Also did you atleast have in ASUS PROBE the CPU Cooling feature enabled? You know that software cooling if your CPU overheats and all

Can you please give more info on what happened.
 
My power supply works fine. I'm using it right now. I think there was a defect in the board. I was running the same set up I normally run.

I was not over clocking it at all. I do normally run my celeron 333 at 500 on my supermicro PIIISCD. No problem. But as i said before I hope intel will honor their warranty
