Ok, I've got a weird gremlin going on here. Recently I noticed that my video card and power supply fans would continue running when I put the computer to sleep. Made a little noise, but they honestly spun pretty slow so I didn't worry about it. Then, today, I powered the computer off to swap a hard drive, and I noticed the fans were going when the computer was powered off. Weird. Then I unplugged the computer, expecting the fans to stop, but they didn't.
Huh?
Let me reiterate: My computer is powered off and unplugged from power. The GPU and PSU fans are still spinning.
So I pulled the DVI out of the video card, and they stopped. WTF? Plugged it back in, they started up again. The computer is still disconnected from power.
What the hell is going on here?
This is on the "Desktop 2" in my signature, video card is an Asus GT750. My monitor is a Samsung S27A850D, 27" 1440p, hooked up to both desktops with proper dual link DVI's. Turning off the monitor doesn't stop the fans from going, or even unplugging the monitor from power.
*edit* Turns out, disconnecting the DVI from Desktop 1 stops the fans going in Desktop 2.
