Alienware aurora Fan issues.
Hey Guys,
I have an Alienware aurora R3 with an intel i5 2300 (No ALX)
.
The gpu bay and HDD bay fan suddenly goes haywire at start up.
Normally after pressing the power button the fan make some noise but only for a few seconds.
Now the fans go all out 55-100% really loud.
I have read that the MIO board can give these issue but my alienware FX lights still work normally.
Also the temperature is still shown on the alienware CC and i can change fan speed.
So is this a MIO issue?
I know i can change the speed of the fan in windows but its awfully load at start till the alienware CC is loaded.
Is there anything i can do?

Hello Mafkeesje!
Yes there is possibility that the MIO board is not controlling the fans in the proper way so I will recommend you to uninstall the command center, perform a power drain and then download the latest version from support.dell.com and run it, this might help you to fix the problem.
Let us know how it goes.

That seem to have fixed it.
No idea what why it happened but its gone now.
System is now silently and cooling is working properly :)
Thanks for the advise
