My HP Pavilion case cooling fan just started running constantly.

My case Office cooling fan runs constantly.  He just started this.  My computer is a HP Pavilion, Nr QX344AA #ABC.  I did no significant change

Hello

Case fans will always run so how (speed) is the question.

Your PC can be covered by the warranty.  Did you check the warranty status?

Open the PC and use a can of compressed air to blow out all the dust, including the dust of the heatsink from the CPU.  While the PC is open, disconnect and reconnect the connector to the case fan goes to the motherboard to make sure the connection is tight.

Ensure that the PC to not locked up in restricted airspace.

Have you tried latest version of the bios updated?  The most recent is 7.16.

  • Cooling fan still works with an average speed on the Satellite A100-405

    Hello guys,.

    If anyone can give me a reason why my satellite cooling fan is always running at speed average. I shot all the "Toshiba Power Saver Properties" settings, to "Battery Optimized" condition and so I took the battery, and the pleasure of cooling is still running and operating at average speed. I'm in a place of model (18 Aºc) without any direct exposure to the Sun or heat.

    If you can help me about whether or not it is a normal condition. I think that it is not normal to have fun all the time for work. Runs normally for 2 minutes and stops during a similar period (used to be the case in other phones that I had in the past).

    Maybe, I need to set or check adjustments internally or in the Bios. I really don't know and I'm really worried about it.

    Thanks guys... Please respond.

    Laptop cooling depends on the use of laptops and the applications that run on the laptop.
    Strong performance of the software is running on the laptop each part as CPU and GPU produce a lot of heat.
    Have you tried to use a material like Speedfan monitoring tool.
    SpeedFan is a freeware program that monitors voltages, fan speeds and temperatures in computers with hardware monitor chips

    But back to the energy saver. In the eve of power configuration, you should try to the CPU for auto control method and try to change the processor, the speed of processing and cooling method.

    Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop. It is important for the circulation of fresh air.

  • Pavilion g7-1368dx "cooling fan does not work correctly.

    Greetings. I have a HP Pavilion g7-1368dx laptop with Windows 7 I bought in June 2012, is no longer under warranty.

    A few weeks ago he had a thermal cut-out once during use. After cooling, the laptop works very well for a few uses, but then it has started giving the boot warning message, "the system has detected that a cooling fan is not working properly," with an additional indication of the damage if the computer is used in this State.

    I ordered a new fan and succeeded him, and I cleaned the fan grille in the process (although it wasn't very dirty), but I still get the same fan error message. I went to the HP website and saw the suggestion to do a "hard reset", so I did it, but the problem persists.

    I saw another suggestion to try a BIOS update, but I thought that would not be desirable because the fan does not work. Suggest you go through with the attempt to update the BIOS anyway?

    Is there something else I can try before ordering a new card system?

    Thanks for your help.

  • HP Pavilion p7 - 1027c: do I need a cooling fan upgrade?

    So I'm going to buy a new graphics card, the Geforce GTX 750 ti and a new power supply 430 Watt. Given that my cooling fan computer stocks is built for my computer which runs on 250 watts with integrated graphics, simply to cool my new card and power supply? Or I have to buy a new cooling fan? If I have to buy a new cooling fan, please give me a suggestion for one that fits my needs at the lowest possible cost.

    There is no magic formula to decide if you need more air.   But here are some thoughts:

    1. not hot or the high unity now?   We you actuallly measured the temp or are you just guessing?

    2. most of the more recent scorecards have cooling fans on board to manage the GPU.

    3. the upgrade a fan with a better fan will supply minimal additional coling...

    (Regardless of what adds it to say about the new fan...)

    So what to do if you need a cooling more...  A few ideas:

    1. get a greater power than you have planned...  If it is running at well less tha it's capacity, it will produce less heat.

    2. download power supply with double oversized fans.  These fans will draw birds from inside the case to cool the power supply and send

    out of the case.

    3. ADD THE FANS.  Some cases have not used to install a fan.  If this isn't the case, you have options.  If you're handy it is not difficult to

    the case mod to accept another fan or two.  Not interested?  You can buy kits to assemble the 2-3 80 mm fans - 90 mm

    together and installed in a slot...  This can be very useful if your video card IS causing excessive heat.  You can

    install the fans just beside the video card to ensure the direct cooling.

    That being said...  I want to first make sure your upgrade is actually to create too much heat.   It has most of the manufacturers to produce products of course there will run cool and effective.  I install the card and check the temperature before proceeding to additional surgery.

  • Pavilion dv7-6c60us: issue of replacement to the Pavilion dv7-6c60us cooling fan

    Hi, so I was very sick, and having a TON of medical procedures made and until they are made my phone is my lifeline and my entertainment, etc.  So a few months back I started getting the dreaded cooling fan error 90 b at random, but now it's every time you start, I built workstations for 3D animation and editing of film/TV (which I do) from scratch and I replaced my previous laptop motherboard Dell, but it's been a while and I'm mixes returns on the research of some saying that it is easy to just replace the fan, pop the switch out, replace it and you are made to these step by step guides, saying: he basically have to go all the way to the motherboard to replace just the fan.  I wanted to just go straight to the horses mouth so to speak and know, because given my health unstable and "convalescent" until I got better in VERY VERY RURAL NC it is now a doubtful 'authorized repair shop' which is little far from me, I wonder if it is only involved should I just let - keeping in mind , I have medical bills piling up and a lot of know how myself, but maybe not the stamina, or should I hard outside - year how "hard" is to just replace the fan.  The left side of the laptop last week became really hot to the touch, whereas before there were 90 b but there was no significant difference and the unit still works, and that's all that I have here PC / computer wise and cannot not simply run out and purchase all replacement until after I'm better that might be 4 months or more? Help?

    Replace a fan in a book involves a complete disassembly of the laptop.

    If you don't have the patience and thoroughness to disassemble and reassemble then the laptop to a State because of your physical condition, I would recommend having a shop to do it for you. Consider cloning hard drive to a storage device before you leave the shop to have it.

  • HP Pavilion G6 g6-1242sa, just fan of startup white screen.

    HP Pavilion G6 g6-1242sa

    Start with fan just white screen.

    Only had the laptop 2 weeks. Still has the plastic on top, took charge when using.

    I see the light HD flashes like its loading.

    The laptop was completely stop last night, is going to turn on today but I have this problem.

    It was bought by Pixmania, but in their return policy, he said that to return it must be sent insured/a signed for the messaging service. Also that we take all return shipping fees. For a heavy laptop I would have thought the cost to achieve would be high.

    Is this all we can try?

    DualFever wrote:

    Yes, the Chargers are identical! Apart fom on serial number.

    The new charger works in the other laptop. If the charger is very well.

    Two loaders do not work in the new laptop, white LED does not illuminate. But if I turn on the laptop, the screen lights up (stays black). Drive HARD light starts flashing as his departure. Just run off the battery, I guess.

    It is best to contact the retailer if I only had the laptop 2 weeks?

    Thank you

    Yes, by contacting the seller would be preferable. The issue leads me to believe that there is a motherboard problem.

  • How to access and replace a pavilion dv7-3173nr cooling fan?

    Pavilion dv7-3173nr member of my family had a cooling fan stop working. This has been noticed during my usual maintenance of it where I take a can of compressed air and spray to clean the fan. As he hit the air I was expecting the fan to turn but it did not. I've then turn it on to see if it would turn but it would turn still not. The warranty just missed in recent weeks and the manuals and other resources that I've found so far do not help. If someone could tell me how to access the fan for this model, it would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

  • Re: Tecra M11 sudennly freezes and the cooling fan starts to run

    My Tecra M11 laptop is running Windows7 and with a broadband dongle Telstra wireless internet lights up and works normally for a period of time.

    Sudennly it freezes completely and 5 seconds later the cooling fan starts to run until I power off using the power button.
    Clues?
    Thank you

    You must understand that on this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
    I can imagine that some background process starts and increase the use of the CPU at the critical level when the motherboard sensors register at higher temperature of the processor and cooling fan starts to run fast enough.

    Try to check in the Task Manager, if something like that happen.

    I put t know how you have configured your operating system and to applications that run in the background, but also to try to stop treatments that you don't need and change some settings.
