To draw all the holes, you draw the first one at 0,0, origin

Then you use XFORM RECTANGULAR ARRAY

It will open a message box and you need to made 4 entries

Distance in the X direction and number on copy or entities

Distance in the Y direction and number of copy or entities

The double arrow is for changing direction

The rectangular array icon is 4 square dots.

Hi,


Is this the manual for your mobo.

If it is, could be useful to keep a copy on hand.

Happy it was so simple and you make it work

If your computer does not boot at all, you will probably need to clear bios setup, it may be corrupted.

Or just to be sure, verify that keyboard is connected.

Try downloading the manual for your mobo.

Sometime on some mobo, there's a jumper to skip or prevent access to the bios.

What brand and model is it.

when booting up, if you keep hitting DEL key, you can't get access to the BIOS???

This sound bad, look like a bad hard dive.

But even with a bad HDD, you should be able to access BIOS

Normally, is you can enter in the BIOS, you should find under PC Health status the RPM for the fan.

If is is spinning, try reducing the RPM a bit to see if it's make any difference.

Depend on what type of computer you have.

It is written when the computer boot.

Normally, this key is Delete

You could start on the bios and disable the CPU fan warning.

This not really recommended but give it a try.
