    Hi,

    I just got my new laptop today :) Anyways, I have a problem. When I have the AC power plugged in the fan hardly ever goes on and reached 75 degrees, I then decided to remove the ac power and it immediately when down to 40 odd. What is the problem? Is it to do with drivers or what?

    Thanks,
    Evan

    I just noticed the fan is constantly on when battery is in use, this must be software related, someone help :/

    I'm actually not sure really, but it seemed to be PowerNow related, because I dont think it was working, but after installing some drivers and restarting it seemed to work
