Dell Optiplex 790 bypass Press F1 during boot
#1
Bought Dell Optiplex 790 motherboard HY9JP to load macOS 10.12.6 on it.  Everything is working great except that I'm missing the air temp sensor and the front I/O panel so everytime during boot, it posts a message about these 2 missing items and I have to press F1 to continue booting.

Checking if it's possible to edit the BIOS to skip this error message and don't need to press F1.  It's currently running version A06 but any of the BIOS listed at Dell's support page will work for me:

Thanks!

This is how I bypass all "Alert!" messages on my Optiplex 790 mobo:

Bypass: Alert! Air temperature sensor not detected.
You have 3 options:
1. Use Power LED or HDD Led - this will bypass the sensor but motherboard fan will runs on full speed (4500RPM, very noisy) because the themperature is out of range
2. Use 2.4K Omh Resistor - this will simulate ambient temp about 15°C and the motherboard fan will runs on 1200RPM (silent)
3. Use a real sensor if you really care about the ambient temp - buy cheap Digital Thermometer (like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/123552743125) and take the sensor then connect red wire to positive and black to negative

Bypass: Alert! Front I/O Cable failure.

Also this is the other errors that are easy to bypass:

Bypass: Alert! Power Button Cable failure.

Bypass: Alert! CPU 0 fan failure. / Alert! Hard Drive fan failure.

Thank you very much!

I've fixed the Front I/O panel and power switch issue.

I plugged my HDD LED connector into the air temp sensor pins.  The HDD LEDs are constantly blinking but I still get the air temperature sensor not detected message.


I have a case on order to fix the HDD fan error message.

Thanks again.

This is the easiest way to bypass "Air temperature sensor":
1. Use 2pin connector + cable from broken fan
2. Buy 2.4K Ohm resistor
3. Solder the cable to resistor, it doesn't matter positive and negative cables
4. Put it into your Mobo
