I got another system built... and when i plug the power cable in, the PC is on by itself. (something is wrong here). I am not able to detect my 40GiG HD, but when i put it on my old computer it detects. how can i solve this? I am gonna download the BIOS update from Asus.com now.

Better the fan is always on than off. You sure you don't have the fan connection hooked to your monster drive?
