Another cold boot, same problem.I am still getting a message saying that the CPU fan has failed. But I can see it spinning in the case. Also, the report from sensors shows everything running at perfectly normal temperatures.
Guess the next thing is to try a firmware/BIOS update. That won't happen for a while, since it will take more time than I have for the next two weeks, involving as it likely does getting some version of Windows running on the Lenovo first. Drat.

I have now (Monday morning) replaced the CMOS battery in the ailing Lenovo Legion T5. After replacing it, I cold-booted up and reset the date -- it seems stuck on Sept 9 -- and ran it for a few minutes. Then I warm-rebooted, and the computer came up quickly. But the date is still stuck on Sept 9. I'll try another cold boot and look into BIOS settings, but I'm afraid that's an indication that the problems go beyond the battery. (Unless of course the battery I put in was also dead, but that seems a wishful stretch.)
