I just noticed that there's no fan activity on my thinkpad, and idle temps are 10-15c higher than they should be. Oddly, I'm having no problem using the machine, the cpu climbs rapidly but has not exceeded 60c, though this is with light use.? The fan is about a year old. I won't have a chance to open it up for a look for several hours ... it's a T40, now with a "Dothan" 2.0mhz cpu ? And now the fan just kicked on, leading to a temp drop, though it's about 8c higher than?expected for the conditions.??So I'll have to open it up and take a look: what should I look for?? No clean, truly secure workspace will be available so few small parts can be pulled and I can't leave it disassembled. ? thanks... _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad
