It is the BIOS that is telling that there is a fan error after testing
the fans at startup even if the fans seem to work with no problem. I
experienced the same as Rory Mooney when I was one week in Denver (I
live in Europe otherwise). When I came back there was no problem. It
seems that Rory Mooney also is in Denver at the moment, so it must be a
Dell-Denver-Syndrom :-) I don't know what is causing it, maybe the thin
air or the net-voltage etc...
Anyway the fans worked on my machine when I used it, but I was extra
careful.
