    Do you change your fan settings in the BIOS?

    Hi,

    I have a dv5t. In the BIOS, it is set by default where the fan runs all the time. I think you can set it to where it only comes on at a threshold temp.

    How many people change this setting so that the fan only cycles at a certain temperature? Or do you just keep it running all the time?

    Thanks.
