    You can use Fn + 1 to toggle them to full blast, try turning it on and off to see if that works.

    Sometimes turning 3dmark11 on and then off shuts them down. Else restart.

    not all clevos have the Fn+F1 function. the HM series had it. my EM does not and the SM has it as well.

    there has been a known issue for a few years that has been reported to clevo. after a gaming session the fans continue to run on full even though the game has been closed.

    like Vozier said, opening a software and closing it will stop the fans. i use nvidia inspector and this works every time for me.
