I bought a new computer one year ago, it’s worked fine (Windows 7).A few months ago, it started to not boot unless I removed my USB headphones connected to a USB hub, everything else worked fine.Today I pressed the space bar by mistake while the computer was going to sleep (which I assume caused the problem), and it rebooted it said that it had lost all hibernation information:and has been acting strangely ever since:when it boots, it brings up a different boot screen (Asus Express something).

pwm automotive fan
I have an older car which tends to over heat in the summer, so a 20 Amp electric fan was added in front of the radiator. Currently its driven by a on / off relay.I want to build an Arduino PWM controller but I am not confident switching that much current especially in an automotive environment.Been testing the VNP35n07 MOSFET but I dont think I am doing it correctly. When tested in the on state there is a noticeable difference in fan speed (noticed via noise) and the draw is about 1 amp less. Un

I have a Toshiba Satellite P300-1FO laptop, and I recently deleted my 12.10 and freshly installed 13.04. The fan speed becomes abnormally high after a short time operating the computer. The CPU usage is low, so I don’t believe it is over-heating.I followed the first answer to this question and ran the following command:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linrunner/tlp sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install tlp tlp-rdw smartmontools ethtoolI didn’t run any other configuration command, I just wanted to

This is the Windows Vista problem, seen, I think, mostly on dual processor laptops, where % CPU suddenly shoots to about 45% and stays there. Once this has happened, % CPU will never return to normal on its own, though, curiously, “sleeping” the box for a few seconds will reset the condition.I’ve seen this happen many times (Sony VGN-CS215J laptop with Intel dual core CPU) when the box is sitting there doing nothing, with only the normal 2-3% background CPU, then suddenly — BOOM!”Process Explo

laptop fan hp-pavilion
I recently purchased a HP Pavilion dv7-4031. When it’s cool, it works smoothly and efficiently. However when CPU and GPU temperatures reach 60c and above, the PC starts freezing up and stuttering. I can hear that the fan speeds steadily increase all the way up to 70-80c. This is what pisses me off: I want the fan speeds to run 100% all the time, perhaps preventing the high temperatures in the first place. The way it is now, fan speeds only increase to keep internal temperatures at above 60c.I’ve

I’m using the HP D530 Motherboard/CPU that I installed in a new case with a 600W PSU.There was a problem with the onboard chassis fan connector (3-wire) not supplying sufficient power to the chassis fan indicated by the fan spinning very slowly, but I never experienced the “512 Error” at boot. Also, the same fan works perfectly connected directly to the PSU.I disconnected it since I already have plenty of fans connected via the PSU directly. Since then, on startup, I get the error: “512 – Chassi

I have a Radeon HD4870-based Sapphire card in my desktop PC (Windows 7 64bit) that started getting pretty noisy recently. The temperature reported in Catalyst was hanging around 80C and the fan would alternate between 43 and 46% when idle at desktop. I decided to take the card apart to vacuum out the dust from the fan and heatsink, and to reapply thermal paste. After that, the average temperature dropped to around 70 when idle, and the fan works around 24%. But it still keeps jumping to 29% all

I have dual boot on my machine – Windows Vista and Fedora 12.I have noticed that while I am on Vista, the fan runs only intermittently, but while I am on Fedora, it runs continuously. I have tried to tweak the power and CPU settings for Fedora, but did not get anywhere.Should I be worried that the fan is running continuously? Or is it okay, the fan is just doing its job?

I have a weird problem that has me baffled. A few days ago, my wife reported that, when she went to run a program for our daughter on an alternate login, my machine was “off.” I asked her if she wiggled the mouse, would it come back “on.” And she said no. She reported that the fans were still running, but the OS was not responding, and not even on. The monitors were on but had no signal.I went into Windows logs and found some relatively worthless message saying “the last shutdown was unexpe

I have an nVidia GTS250 that, in the last couple of months, has decided that it has a problem with newer games. Older games are fine, but anything made in the last couple of years will eventually make the system crash and apparently bluescreen (although I never actually see it). Googling the bluescreen code suggests it’s an overheating issue; running a heat monitor reveals my CPU runs at a crisp 60ºC when idle but my GPU sits at 85ºC when idle.

I installed the latest SpeedFan for my Dell Studio 15 Notebook, which after installing Windows 7 on it, may turn off by itself after some use.SpeedFan used to not tell the speed of fan, until yesterday I checked the box in the Options that says: “check this box for Dell notebooks”, and the fan’s RPM is shown.The temperature of the GPU, as well as one core was as high as 85, and sometimes drop to 80, but I am suspecting this may be the problem of the computer turning itself off.

I have a fan on my laptop that doesn’t turn on often enough. The computer doesn’t crash, but becomes very laggy. When the fan turns on the computer starts running fast again. How can I keep the fan on? I use Acer Aspire 5733Z on Windows 7. I tried SpeedFan but it couldn’t detect the fan.

I’d like to enable AMD Overdrive and Manual Fan Control in Catalyst Control Center and reduce fan speed to minimum (20%) but I’m afraid what happens if I start using the card heavily and forget to disable Manual Fan Control.Will it disable by itself when temperature reaches some dangerously high value or will the fan will stay obediently at low speed and GPU will crash or gets damaged due to overheating?

fan desktop-computer noise
I can’t tolerate any noise in my room at all. I want to remove all 4 fans I have in my system:Processor Fan, Cabinet Fan, SMPS Fan, Graphics Card FanCan removing all these fans produce any fire due to heat in a desktop? And if the system can survive even for 6 months, I am ready to have the loss, but can’t tolerate noise.

The problem seems easy at the first glance but is a little more complicated. The machine (Lenovo laptop) has Windows 8 Pro, a Intel Core i7 and all 4 cores run at 100% . The fan runs at full speed the whole time. When rebooting the fan spins down and starts to spin up once the start screen comes up. I tried to kill all unneded processes but it had no effect, there is also no additional anti virus software installed.In the task manager the System Idle Process is shown with 98%-99% as well as in

I have had several notebooks before and every one of them I can put them on the bed without any problem. This Dell Studio Notebook, however, seems like have the air / fan outlet pointed outward from the bottom back of the notebook, so I suspect that the air is partially blocked when it is on the bed.Are there Win 7 tools that can monitor the CPU temperature, or will some

After starting with no other processes running and (cpu-usage: ~1%) the temperature of both cores is at 61

I can’t change my screen brightness at all and the fan sensors don’t work as they have to. When I used windows the fans were working very silently almost all the time except when the temperature was above 56°c so the laptop fan worked until the ideal temperature was reached, which was 50°c. Now In Ubuntu they work silently even if its above 59°c and only work at hig

11.04 macbook fan overheating
I’ve got a MacBook 6,1 with Natty installed, and occasionally, usually when I’m doing something intensive, the display freezes up and becomes totally unresponsive, while the lat 2 seconds of audio loop over and over. When I reboot immediately after, however, the problem occurs again much more quickly. This, and the fact that I’ve never heard the fan running (though it does so infrequently under OS X) leads me to believe that something inside is overheating. Any ideas?

When my PC boots up the fan speed whirls like a beast even when browsing the BIOS, settings, etc, which is fair enough. Previously when I was using Windows it used to calm down as soon as it boots into it.However, it doesn’t calm down when it boots into Ubuntu 12.10.
