Asus ux32vd random fan speed!

Hello! As the title say, My Asus ux32vd seems to have some issues going on with random fan noise/Speed. It dosen't happend that often, sometimes it can go hours and sometimes it just happen right after wakeup / or turn on. I think It is software related or bios. But I can figure it out. Ive been searching on the internet for a looong time but could't get any answer and asus support couldnt help me either. Anyone here know a fix ?

Thank's alot!

 

Hi,
This seems to be quite a common issue with the UX32VD, mine does exactly the same. A temporary solution is to uninstall the Intel Dynamic Platform & Thermal Framework software. Keep in mind that this is only a temporary workaround.

Regards

 

Hi, I've uninstalled the intel Dynamic... and seems that is work, but I'd like to know what is the function of the Intel Dynamic Platform. After uninstalled it I have 5 unrecognized hardware... I tried to found some information with google, but I can't found any info.

 

The Intel Dynamic Platform & Thermal Framework enables rules for the thermal policies. Either you have an active policy which allows the fan to spin up or you have a passive policy which leaves the fan on a low rpm and reduces processing power.

By the way: I had the problem sometimes on my 206 bios, too. Then I switched to 209. Now its totally gone with all installed drivers.

 

The problem come back also without intel dynamic thermal framework, then I reinstalled it. I already have 209 bios. I noticed a strange thing,normally the random fan starts only sometimes, but always when I monitoring it with speedfan. If I just stop speedfan it start to work normally again. In my pc this problem is not so evident because the speed of fans also when is erratic is about 3000 and I can't recognize it so easy. Is much louder sometimes after the standby.
Can u take a shot of your installed drivers and post here? Have u solved also the problem after standby?

 

I installed everything following this guide. I used the latest drivers downloaded from the asus homepage. It was a bit tricky to install the WLAN driver correctly, but after installing the .Net-Framework v4, then installing the WLAN completely and then installing Wireless Conole 3 in the version before the latest version, everything works perfect. I have no problem after standby. My fan stays calm in every situation (except under high load).

 

I followed the same list to install my drivers... I don't know... How I told I've this problem just sometimes, but I have it.

 

When I remember correctly, the problem was only when factory installed. After reinstalling on the iSSD and even with 206 all noises were gone. The 209 did not change anything. I used Win 7 64 Pro for the reinstallation.

 

A question, what utility from Asus have u installed? Do u use power4gear or the asus utility update? After I've uninstalled power4gear the pc wake up from standby just lifting up the screen and the fan doesn't start at maximum speed anymore. Before I've normally to wake up it pushing the power button.

 

I use power4gear and Asus Update, just like mentioned in the guide. The only tools I installed additionally are the Wireless Console 3, because I wanted FN+F2 to work correctly, and the splendid video tool, just because I was curious about it.

 

Accidentally solved my problem albeit probably a temporary solution. I installed the intel 4000 driver for windows 8 (compatible w win7) and my fan issue went away. Actually my laptop battery life got better too.

Spoke too soon... fan still does kick up when coming out of sleep. I am however getting better battery life with this driver.

Interesting observation, normally my fans kick up full blast for like 5 mins when coming out of sleep. So immediately I put it back to sleep and wake again and fan is absolutely silent. Does anyone know what this means?

 

where did you find 209? im having issues with my fan as well

 

Hello guy, I bought mine in France.
Bios 206.
computer UX32VD-4002.
After 2/3 minutes running, the fan goes full trottle for 90% of my use of it (and so far only emails and internet browsing).
It looks like it is trigger when the CPU temperature goes over 50Celcius... But in any case, from my use so far I never exceed 57Celcius...
It is a shame to sold a device like this. It is like throwing a coin when you buy it and have a lot of chance to receive a buggy device like this!
I am desperate... I looked on internet... some people have the fan doing perpetual start and stop. Mine barrely stop...
I of course updated everything software related from asus website, but did not followed advices so far that said go for the 207 or 209 bios update that can be found outside the asus official website only (why??).
I try to uninstall the asus thermal thing as well... problem remain the same.
Any advices or official communication about Asus for this will be welcome.
thank you guys

 

For example here: NB-TSD Download

 

i got the file but why isnt this posted on asus support website? also, how could i safely install bios 209 (i currently have 203) thanks!

 

it looks after an other day and about 55 windows KB update the problem seems gone... strange but wait and hear. I keep you posted.
Previously I had also update drivers from asus official website.
