Summary0000544: Computer hangs at random when SpeedFan is running
DescriptionInstalling speed fan 4.28 on my home built pc has this strange problem. The monitor just blanks out at random if I leave the pc on for a few hours (or overnight). The lights are still on the pc, I can hear the fans, but the monitor is blank and it doesnt respond to any mouse of keyboard input. The only way out is to turn off power. If I dont have SpeedFan running (it is still installed), then this problem doesnt arise. Very strange.

Not so strange if your video card is overheating due to the reduced fan speeds from running speedfan

Well, I am using SpeedFan just for monitoring temps/rpms and not for controlling any fans. I dont think this is temperature related as it happens most often when the computer is left on for a few hours (such as overnight) when the ambient temp is down and computer activity is also quite low.
