    MP 1,1-5,1 Mac Pro 1 1 cpu fan running full speed

    The system boots fine but right when it starts up the cpu fans rev up all the way to full. When I check fan control it shows that cpu b heatsink is running extremely hot. Also, the top ram riser isn't recognized for some reason. Could this be a logic board issue?
