Steve,
I recently assembled a Celeron 400 (Retail Socket 370 - Intel Cooling Fan).
When plugged into the motherboard (Soyo 6BA+) FAN1 connector, no status of
the fan or CPU were shown in the BIOS. This system has ran a burn-in
program on and off for about 72 hours. It appears to have no problrms at
all.
