Re: "auto" fan level not working on Z61t?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In this case, it looks more like it behaves like this as "per design", 
rather than a broken bios implementation... I had a thinkpad a22p before 
which was happily going up to 94deg before throttling back.

What i don't understand though, and hope lenovo would explain is why, if 
the aim is to minimize fan use ir does not go back to level2 for example 
when temperature reaches below 50.
