I had to buy a new Hard drive the other week. Ever since I installed it, the 2 front fans, and the blue lights do no longer work. Where would I go to turn those features back on?

Hi Dieball.... Replacing the hard drive shouldn't effect the fans. I'm thinking you knocked their connections loose while in there.

You didn't mention the rig, but if it's the Vanquish, it's two front blue led fans have a wire running over to the motherboard where they plug into a Cha-fan header. If it's a case with a front fan control like Apollo, I believe they plug into the wires coming from the top, where the fan speed control is.

Basically, pull both side covers and trace the wires from the fans to see if they came loose.

Hope this helps and good luck.

NAILED IT!! Sorry for not mentioning it was the Vanquish III. It indeed was the 2 plugs behind the HD slots that must've came apart during swapping drives. Not only did you help, but i'm pretty sure it was record time.

What a community I've fallen into. Really adds to the happiness since I've purchased my computer!
