SOURCE: I just bought a Honeywell

I just installed a Honeywell 5.2 Day RTH2310B Programmable thermostat and I had to deal with the same situation: 2 wires, one white one black. After reading the edvice in one of the blog, the solution that worked for me was: BLACK ON Rc terminal and WHITE on W terminal. My furnace is running fine now. Hope it helps.

Fan blows too strong (and loud) when heat comes on

Make sure your fan switch set to "auto". If there is a switch or jumper in the t-stat labeled "G" and "E" or "GAS" and "ELEC", it should be on "E".
