    hahHA!...I finally gripped enough to gateway, and they sent me a replacement fan for my 6860FX right?

    Well it's waiting for me back in Texas (I'm in the Navy, and stationed in Florida) so in the mean time, I tried to find a temporary fix for the machine....Well...I opened up a fan monitor that comes with Ntune....It's showing fan's

    Aux 1: 80 RPM
    and
    Aux 2: 20480

    ....I'm going to guess that one of these two is high abnormal, and just further goes to diagnose what I have thought....the GPU fan is dying no?
