    Hi,

    I noticed that on my M860TU ( or ETU ) it has the same Fn + Key combinaisons than my M570TU.

    But one seems to be missing I would like to know if it is normal or if I didn't find the proper combinaison o_O ? or if it simply not available on the M860TU.

    Fn + 1 for my M570TU was activating fans to their max speed but it doesn't work on the M860TU. However Fn + 2 which ehm change the sound ? is working as well as on my M570TU.

    Is there any key for activating maximum fan speed on M860TU ?
    Could be cool as my M860TU is surprisingly quiet ( while I saw many time it was a noisy notebook ? maybe I am deaf but mine is quiet, very very quiet especially when comparing it to my M570TU x__x ).

    No, there is no fan control on the M86.

    To have a fan control on the m860tu would be awesome. The rising rate of temperatures during gaming would drop a bit.

    Yeah, my CPU had become jolted out of place, so it wouldn't start up, but I've fixed it now.
