What error are you refering to specifically?

error - "Processor Fan not detected "
Everytime I starts up my computer, I get this error after the first screen (where you press del to enter in CMOS).

It could be that the fan you're using isn't connected to the special CPU fan power socket on the motherboard, instead it may be powered directly by the PSU as in some case fans. If this is the case then its nothing to worry abot.

Yup. You may have a setting that will toggle whether it responds to a CPU fan detection or not. I couldn't tell you where to look, but I'd suspect it to be under PC Health or Frequency/Voltage selections.

Failing that, you could always have a 3-pin fan plugged into the CPU fan header.
