I recently bought and installed the Zalman cnps7000-alcu heatsink, and when 
I
turn on the comp, a loud beeping sound comes on and the monitor doesn't 
power on.


I noticed On the instruction manual that it says:
"When booting the comp, it may automatically power down after an alarm sound 
by a
system monitoring program to indicate that the CPU fan is rotating slowly. 
if this
happens, turn the speed control knob fully clockwise to increase the fan 
speed. then
set 'CPU Fan Detected' to 'Disabled' in the BIOS settings, or set the 
slowest
rotational speed of the CPU fan in the system monitoring program to less 
than or
equal to 1,300rpm.
Note) Some motherboards do not boot if the rotational speed of the CPU fan 
is below
a certain rpm. If the BIOS settings are updated, Silent Mode can be used."


Are my voltages too high for the heatsink? If so, what extremely quiet 
heatsink
do you recommend that is compatible with my computer? If no, what can 
possibly be
causing this sound and monitor problem?
