    I have had my Lenovo 3000 n100 or a week or 2 now. Just today I have noticed the CPU fan goes on medium speed every 20 or 30 seconds and stays on for about 10. This is getting pretty annoying, and wondering if there are any fixes for this?

    Any Help is appreciated!

    Thanks

    No, but I'm pretty sure this issue started when the guy @ Lenovo support had me reset my bios for a screen sparkle issue. I didn't notice this problem till after that happen. That was early this morning, I tried resetting power saving settings back to normal.


    Btw on MOBile Meter, my computer runs about 43-48 C browsing internet/checking email
