I didnt notice this before. Why does it run so often and how can I adjust it.
kiwi im timing it, and im hearing the fans go off every minute. Are you sure this is ok? I never heard odf all Branded laptops doing this.kiwiguy said:Normal.
They run when the CPU temperature gets up.
To stop it, you could:
Turn the laptop off
Not use it for anything, so the CPU runs cool
Ensure that the air vents are free from obstruction
Use it in a cold room.

cant you pop off the keys with just a pen tip like on desktop standards keyboards?CAPSLOCK said:Not on a laptop, unless it's ancient ('i' before 'e' except after 'c'...who the {asterisk} thought of that one. Refering to ancient not anceint for those in Kentucky). Laptop keyboards are replaced as a whole (the laptop's I've dealt with). If you 'pop' it off you 'void your warranty'.
Sorry for all of the ' 's
