Corecenter stops fan

I have a 865 neo2 board with an 3.2 and stock fan. When me and my friend assembled my computer the fan power cable was accidentally hooked up to the wrong connector, it ran at 3125 rpm and kept to cpu at 49 degrees, not really a problem. i saw core center wa not regesterin a cpu fan and checked it out, hooked it up correctly and turned it on. The fan spins up untill core center is loaded by windows, them stops running and core center starts the alarm saying that the cpu fan is not spinning. (in the short time that core center is running and the fan is spinning it runs at over 4000 rpm)

box3r,
I am using Core Center also for DOT only and speedfan for the temp monitor.
Used thermal probe to control the Fan rpm automatically.
You could also use S.M.A.R.T on bios by enabling it and it could cost you a performance.
So good luck.

Very Loud and Never Stopping Fan

Hi,
I purchased my HP laptop in September 2010 and for the past few months the fan runs constantly and is very loud. Even after shutting down my laptop for hours, upon start up the loud fan begins. It has gotten so loud and distracting that it is now hard to focus and use the laptop.
Any feedback would be appreciated. I remember when buying the laptop something about a year warranty on hardware. Does this exist? This issue needs to be resolved.

Well, the never stopping fan can be due to a number of factors, most usually:
1)      You have a dust build-up in your heat sink (which may not be apparent by just looking through the vents). Unfortunately your computer’s cooling system also acts as a vacuum cleaner to all those table tops it has been on. It is a common nuisance after over a full year of work. Cleaning it up may require disassembling the whole computer, since the heat sink is inaccessible on many computers. (Word of caution: if you are thinking of using “Canned Air” to blow the dust out, be very wary that you may destroy your fan bearings if the canned air makes the fan blades rotate too fast!)
2)      CPU may be under constant load (maybe some new buggy software update was installed?) – Check CPU Load on “Task Manager”.
3)      The GPU (graphics card) may be running always at full speed, thus increasing the heat inside the unit (change GPU profiles to “Battery Optimized” or such).
Finally, do use a program such as “CPUID Hardware Monitor” to read out the temperature sensors inside your computer. You can better understand at which temperature the fan kicks in and why the temperature is rising to that target.

Does Thinkpad Edge E545 have a non-stopping fan?

I was thinking of purchasing this model:
http://shop.lenovo.com/ae/en/laptops/thinkpad/edge-series/e545/
I don't need anything fancy just something reliable so this would suit me fine. I mentioned it to a friend who said he bought the E530 and has regretted it ever since due to an issue with the fan. Apparently once the fan starts it doesn't stop. There is a 90-page thread about here:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/E530-pulsing-whiny-fan-no-low-load/td-p/797577/pa...
I had assumed this would have just been an isolated model problem. What is concerning is that not only have Lenovo not fixed the issue but I have come across similar complaints about the next model, the E540:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/E540-Fan-does-not-stop/td-p/1439657
If the same issue is present in the next model am I wrong to assume it is also present in the E545? Can someone confirm either way plz. I am also considering a Dell Latitude which I will purchase if there is no confirmation the problem has been addressed, but I would prefer to get this model.
Regards, Miranda.

I set up an account just to reply to you!...and also I just bought a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E545, and I want everyone to know what they're doing. Plus, I'm having the same problem. I just downloaded the Broadcom Wireless LAN (Driver here! Remember to choose for either Windows XP, 8, 8.1, or whatever you have!) and I've seen past comments that this has worked for them. I'm about to go try it out, so wish me luck! I hope you haven't returned that laptop you bought! Lenovo is usually such a good brand, from what I hear, and I personally already enjoy the exterior, as I put structure, stability, and damage-resistant against style, which the Edge E545 seems to be more for the accident prone or careful type, but still cool! Good luck!

848P In CoreCenter - NB Fan Speed - But no Temp?

Hi,
In CoreCenter i can see CPU Temp, Fan Speed etc, but i only get NB Fan Speed but NB Temp is shown as N/A ?
Any ideas?

Hi Matd,
This is due to limits on the Mainboard.
You not be able to see +12V either.......
As the 848P chipset is a CUTDOWN version of 865, you will lose quite a slice of important info!!!

Corecenter pro fan speeds

I'm running corecenter pro as MSI told me PC Alert wasn't supported on the Master 2 FAR. I noticed that the CPU1,2 and System fan speeds are ALWAYS 0. When I'm booting and go into the BIOS it tells me the fans are running and they are usually around 1200 rpms, yet Corecenter always reports fan speed as 0.
Is this a known bug in Corecenter?

After a bunch of late night reading, I see it's related to whether or not you let the BIOS manage the temperature or not.
Still a secondary question is why is setting the system fan speed not available to me in the bios? I have a smart fan plugged in and the bios even shows what speed the fan is running at, I just don't seem to have the option to adjust it for temperature and tolerance within the bios area.

R7870-2GD5T/OC fan constant stop and start in idle

Hello,
I have an R7870-2GD5T/OC and I have the following problem with it:
When the Windows7 turn off the screen after x minutes idle time, the VGA card cool off, and turn off the fans completely. However, 0,5 seconds after the turning off he realize the card is too hot, and turning back the fans. However, after 2 seconds he realize the card is cool off and turn off the fans completely. So on.
This continues until the computer goin' to sleep, or the screen turn back.
The problem is the noise. The spinning fans are ok, the stopped fans are ok too, but this constant stopping-starting make a noise like boyracers at the red sign, very annoying.
I installed the MSI softwares, first checked the firmware update, but there is no update for the firmware. I tried to set the fan speed with the Afterburner software, and set to manually to keep the fans in working even at minimum temperature, but is didn't help. When the screen turn off, the VGA card goin to mad.
There is any solution for this? (behind the workaround to never turn off the screen)
This is an Intel i5 config, with 64 bit windows7.
Thank you.

As GPUs can operate at quite high temps, have you tried setting your min fan speed, i.e. where the fans stop spinning to be maintained up to 60C and only then start increasing the fan speed from there?
What kind of other ventilation have you got in your machine? Have you got a fan on the side panel that can blow onto the GPU?
Does your GPU not have a switch to toggle between normal and LN2 settings?
If all fails, ask MSI technical if they have a different VBIOS for your card that prevents the fans from stopping at all.

Heatsink Fan Recommendations and Questions

Hello,
I have the 875p Neo with a intel 2.8HT processor. I want to buy a new heatsink for it but I have no idea which one to pick...
The thermalright ones listed at http://www.below-0.net/belowzero.asp?contenttype=products&menuid=453054337&parenttitle=Cooling&childtitle=Intel%20Socket%20478
, look pretty good.
Question #1: How easy will they be to install on my processor and mb.
Question #2: Will the fan from my existing cooling unit, fit this? Or should I just upgrade it as well...
Question #3: Whats the deal with thermal paste?
Question #4: Below-0 looks okay, but I would rather buy from a recommended site.
Thanks
Jeremy

Me likes my Zalman copper . Yes, it's heavy, but that doesn’t seem to be a problem. I've tossed my case around a bit with no problems so far. The mounting system is rock solid!
Read the thermal grease instructions carefully before applying. It’s not 100% intuitive. Get some 100% anhydrous isopropyl alcohol (not rubbing alcohol, which is 97% water) and some lintless cloths to clean the CPU and heatsink before greasing them. Use very little grease!
Grease instructions
Isopropyl alcohol
Lintless swabs
With Speedfan installed instead of Corecenter , the fan is off 50% of the time when's CPU activity is low. That's quiet!
As you can see, I got rid of the ridiculous lightshow fan. You can just make out the Zalman passive cooler on my VGA card.

MBP Cooling Fan

How do I stop fan from running continuously?

There may be reasons why you fans are running fast. It could be due to the applications that you are using which may be CPU/GPU intensive.
First step is to perform a SMC reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Run an Apple Hardware Test:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
Download and install istat menus from the Internet:

Equium A100-027 - Audio Fuzz/Glitch/Click (Fan related)

Hello,
I have seen other forums showing problems similar to this but I will explain the symptons.
I have two problems, which I am trying to fix.
1. The fan on this laptop seems to turn on and off every couple of mins after the laptop has been running for over 15-20 mins. For the first 15-20 mins of it being turned on, the fan doesn't go on at all even if I open big programs up or do lots of things on it. However, after that time frame has been met, the fan turns on for a few seconds before turning on. The fan begins to go on every few mins and then it starts to go on every minute or two minutes. My room is not that warm but I suppose a very slight temperature change in the room can cause this? If I move the laptop to the hall-way where it is much much cooler, the fan seems to go on less - however, I cannot use the laptop in the middle of the hall-way to stop fan going on as much. The fan goes on everytime I open programs that are not very small, e.g. Notepad and Paint load with no fan required but opening Microsoft Word, Dreamweaver, FireFox, etc make the fan turn on for a few seconds. The fan only seems to last up to 5 seconds usually and I don't notice it staying on for long but the fact it has to come on so often annoys me. I notice typing in Dreamweaver design view make the fan turn on everytime I type. If I type a few letters, it comes on and goes off when I finish typing. If I continue to type for ages, the fan will stay on till I finish. This probbaly due to the high CPU Dreamweaver uses. I am using Vista and the CPU rises to 50% when I type in Dreamweaver, whereas typing on MSN or Word the fan doesn't come on and CPU is closer to 20-30% when typing and much lower when idle. I don't think this is to do with any hardware problem but I suppose its just possible. Is there a way to prevent it from going on as often as it does. Settings? External cooling method?
2. When the fan goes on and off every minute or two, I hear a glitch in the audio when I am listening to music. I don't hear the sound when I am not listening to music but every few mins when listening to music, I hear a slight fuzz or glitch in the audio for less than a second. It is highly fustrating and I think it is probably a hardware problem as my friend has the same laptop and doesn't experience the glitch in his music. He does have the fan going on and off often when his room is warmer than normal but not overly warm so I assume this model laptop or model range has a sensitive fan but I am more concerned about the glitch rather than the fan. I listen to music a lot on the laptop so if the glitch was gone, the music would cover up the fan going on and off most of the time and I would probably get used to the fan when I am not listening to music. The glitch annoys me so much and I don't know what I should do.
I sent the laptop to The Tech Guys to look at but I don't know if they will be able to fix it or not. If I get it back and it is the same, I would have to send it to Toshiba as I rang them up and they were happy to take the laptop in too.
I was wondering, if they can't fix the problem, would they replace the laptop for me - even though PCWorld 28 day policy has passed. I am thinking they could if I sent directly to Toshiba themselves but I am uncertain.
If I change settings on laptop. it still covering up the problem so it would never be fixed if it is setting based. It really needs to be fixed physically or replaced.
What do you think?
Any help and advise is much appriciated.

Thank you for your reply.
I realised that I didn't have the Toshiba Power Saver Utilities.
This is because I uninstalled the Value Pack that came on the laptop.
I can install it again when I get the laptop back or do another format as I didn't put anything on it so doing another restore format wont do any harm.
Well - that would have solved the fan issue but it wouldn't have resolved the glitch as one of my friends has the same laptop and he doesn't get glitch even if power settings are default. Well - thanks for telling me about the cooler fan settings because this could come in handy when I get the laptop back.

Can't reach max (also with fancontrol) and min fan speed manually

I'm using fancontrol to control my fan's speed. One thing I noticed is that maximum fan speed is never reached even when temperatures exceed max limit.
If I set max temperature in /etc/fancontrol to 55 and restart fancontrol, 55+°C will cause fan to speed only at ~5800 RPM. If I set min temperature to 60, fans will completely stop. 'pwm_enable' is set to 1 when fancontrol is running.
Now if I stop fancontrol, fan will speed up to ~6460 RPM while 'pwm' is at 255 and 'pwm_enable' changed to 0. I can't change 'pwm' value at this point. If 'pwm' gets set to 0, fan will completely stop.
At this point fancontrol is still not running. If I set 'pwm_enable' to 1 and leave 'pwm' at 255, fan will slow down to ~5800 RPM. If I set 'pwm' to 0, fan will not slow down completely, but will instead slow down to ~2080 RPM.
What's interesting is that although fancontrol can't reach max fan speed, it can stop fan completely, while I can do neither manually.
Any idea how to enable at least max fan speed for fancontrol?

Macbook Pro Mid 2010 (Model 6.2) restarts like cray cray

Can't believe this is happening...
Macbook Pro Mid 2010 Model - Intel i5 2.4GHz - RAM 8GB - GPU NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M
So I've seen quite a lot of threads discussing the 'GPU Panic' issue since I first encountered it a few weeks ago. The problem had never occurred on my MBP prior to that. However, the situation is now so bad that I wouldn't be able to open the Mac OS and make a copy of the panic report before it automatically reboots. Fortunately I have Windows 8 installed on the machine so I am still able to post for help on here.
A few questions / personal thoughts on the issue:
I bought this MBP back in June 2010 in China... So I won't be eligible for a free repair by any means right? It's been almost fours years since the purchase - significantly longer than three years restricted by Apple. I've seen another user who posted how they successfully defended their consumer rights by bringing some printouts of consumer laws and regulations. Lots of respect for that... But surely that only applies to goods purchased in the UK right? I'm so screwed... If a repair costs a few hundred quid then there is no point doing it, is there? I guess I can live with Windows for one or two years before the machine wears out and then get a new one. That being said, I still wonder if anyone in similar situation has managed to get free repair (GPU / logic board replacement or whatever it is). If so, mind sharing your story?
Is it nearly impossible to make a Genius Bar reservation nowadays or is it just me? My plan was to bring my MBP and talk to a genius and see where it goes. But both Covent Garden and Regent Street seem fully booked until a distant future. The reservation page does not show any available time slots, it simply says 'There are no available appointments at this store'. I mean I don't really mind if it is in a few days, a week, a month or even a year, just give me something. Telling people 'no availabe appointments at this store' is not very helpful is it? Since I have never had a Genius reservation (never had any issue using my MBP until this one - the good old days are gone) before, I'm curious what would happen if I just walk in with my MBP. Would they ask me to make a reservation or would they serve me right away?
Since I have never encountered the GPU panic issue (or any issue really) before I upgraded to Mavericks 10.9.2. I had never had any similar problems running Windows (Previously Vista, 7 and now 8) on my MBP either. I am speculating maybe the GPU Panic issue is more of a software bug. I am not ruling out the possibility of the GPUs being defective, but considering that fact everything was perfectly fine before the arrival of the evil Mavericks (for me, the upgrade to Mvericks 10.9.2), maybe the specific problem is down to Mavericks? I think this could be good news because Apple could quickly fix it for everyone as long as they know about the issue. Well... I don't think our chances of getting it sorted quickly are good, especially not when the new iPhone/iOS, which generates 10X more profits than Macs, is at the most critical stage of development. What do you guys think?
Oh it is just so frustrating. Using Windows on a Mac is definitely a nightmare - miserable 2 hour battery life and noisy non-stop fan spinning. Someone please help....................

In the Replacement Program Support Article, it states:
Apple will service affected 15-inch MacBook Pro computers free of charge until three years from date of purchase. This worldwide Apple program does not extend the standard warranty coverage of the affected MacBook Pro.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088
According to these terms, you are outside the eligibility window. However, I still second andyBall_uk's sentiments.
Make a Genius Bar Reservation. Print out a copy of the kernel panic report and the Support Article. If the 'Genius' refuses servicing without cost, ask for the store manager. It is ultimately at the manager's discretion.
Additionally, if this doesn't work out, you can look into Apple's flat fee repair program:

Best of luck.

P35 Neo Combo F woes

Hi all.
I am new to this forum so I hope I don't repeat an old topic (I have looked for this problem and don't see it specifically).
Basically, I built a system for a brother 2 yrs ago using this MoBo with an Intel Quad 6550 and DDR2 800. It worked fine for him until one day it just went into an endless cycle of starting and stopping, fans roaring but no boot up. Long story made short, he had it worked on by some professionals in the Columbus, Oh area and after upgrading the bios to 1.3 and swapping RAM(which didn't work), they sold him a new Intel MoBo.
Well, I now have this Mobo (because I'm stubborn) in my rig and everytime I upgrade software or install a new component, it freaks. But, I don't get the 'cycle' that I've read about. In fact, I wish I did. I could deal with that. What it does for me is nothing but run the fans. No HD accessing, no beeping, no post; nothing unless I turn off PS, pull the plug, and repeat until it will post, acknowledge the HD and boot up. There is no set pattern to what will work either. I have pulled the cord, discharged the capacitors, reset CMOS, and had nothing happen. What really puzzles me (even more) is that when Windows restarts after maintenance or if I restart manually, the computer powers down completely and starts up again from scratch, maybe. Sometimes when I let it set overnight, it will start up after the initial 'stutter.'
When it boots up, it runs fine with default CMOS settings until powered down. Sometimes it cycles once and takes off, other times not. I have gotten no satisfaction from MSI other than 'send it in with $35 and we'll see what we can do.' What I'm about to do is buy an Asus board and use this one as a Frisbee, but I do like it when it works........
Here is what I've got
-Intel E6300 1.86 GHZ Core 2 duo
-MSI 7365 P35 Neo Combo F Bios V 1.7
-(2) Corsair DDR2 800 CM2X-1024-6400C4 (same memory sticks I originally used for my bro, I have swapped them with 2 Corsair DDR2 800 CM2X1024-6400C5DHX and it makes no difference)
-Sapphire ATI Radeon 3870 (512k DDR4) vid card (My bro had ATI 1950 pro)
-WD 1600 AAJS-00PSA0 SATA HD
-HP CD Writer + 8100
-Toshiba DVD Rom SD-M1712
-Win XP Pro (32 bit) SP 3. All SPs installed from downloads, not cds or dvds
-PSU OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W with 2 25A 12V rails
Sorry to ramble so much, I hope what I've said makes some sense. I'm a retired auto tech, not a computer tech :-)
Thanks, Bob

Hello and welcome,
im normally not recommending this, but is 1.3 the latest bios onboard?
If so, might wanna update bios and see if that helps, there were some issues with powering down, memorycompatibility and other stuff.
Read here on how to do it safely:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=113295.0
If this is your board:
http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=&cat3_no=&prod_no=1216
then look also here for biosfiles and other stuff that might come in handy, be sure to get the latest bios file, it incorporates all previous fixes.
DONT use LiveUpdate, M-Flash or any other windows based biosupdating program, cause that might wreck your board.
Use the tool provided or via cd/dvd, read here:

FCoE and multiple Nexus 5000s and a 7000 core

Hi
I have a customer who is looking at four Nexus 5020s to start with and more in the future uplinked to a Nexus 7000 core.
Am I right in thinking that whilst data traffic will be able to reach hosts ocnnected to a different Nexus 5002 via the 7000 core FCoE traffic will not ?
If so what is teh recommended way of rolling out pods of 5020s for VMware servers with converged network adaptors so that they can all access the SAN ?
Regards
Pat

Don't use corecenter for fan speed control. Instead, use the BIOS:
1) Open Corecenter from the administrator account or a user account that has admin privileges. Click on the top center logo which should open the fan speed control window. There should be two items, CoolnQuiet and User/Manual or something like. Put it in manual and move the slider all the way to the right. Ignore the CoolnQuiet, it's misnamed here - MSI's corecenter does not control CoolnQuiet. What MSI is calling CoolnQuiet is just fan speed control. Anyway, put it in manual. Close Corecenter and you should never have to open it again unless you want to monitor fan RPM's.
2) Next, reboot and enter the BIOS. Go to the H/W Monitor settings. Turn on Smart CPU Fan Speed. Set to 40 C +/- 1. This will allow the motherboard to control the fan speed. On the other hand, if you want your fan always at maximum, then disable Smart Fan Speen control. Don't worry about the Smart NB Fan speed, leave it disabled.
Also, keep in mind that when you first open Corecenter, the immediate fan RPM's reported are not correct. It takes it a few seconds to get the readings. So wait until Corecenter minimizes itself to the system tray, then open it from there, and you will see the correct fan RPM's.

Advice about switching to the mba

Only recently moved from windows to a mac and I'm ready to go MBA already!
I need some advice about the new MBA though please... Usually I look for reviews, youtube vids etc but can't find anything about the new MBA.
I read stories about problems with the old MBA and wanted to hear from people that have the new version.
I'm particularly worried about the stories of overheating and non-stop fan noises, taking ages to reboot etc (have these been rectified with the new MBA?).
I currently have the 2ghz and it's pretty fast, love how quickly it switches on and off and I'd hate to loose that.
Also, the MBA would become my main laptop as I couldn't possibly afford to keep both! Obviously I realise the MBA is not as powerful as the MacBook or the Pro but I'm not a heavy user, only mail, internet, youtube, itunes, ical, Office for Mac, some basic photo editing and rarely some light video editing.
I would really appreciate any insight from current new MBA users, I know things are quite subjective (ie: I think my MacBook overheats very quickly but maybe to others this would be the norm) so I wouldn't bite your head off!
sorry if this is the wrong place to post this... I couldn't find a more relevant category.

I bought the 2nd generation MBA (released last November). I purposely held off on buying the first generation because of the complaints about the overheating etc. I follow a lot of Mac forums and can tell you that any problems you heard about have been resolved.
There are always a few people that have issues with their machine - not matter what generation it is - but I would recommend the new versions to anybody that wants one.
Fan noise is very subjective. I use my MBA a for Audio Recording and production - so my fan comes on pretty fast on mine - as the software I use maxes out the processor right from the start. And here is the best way I can sum it up:
If I take the MBA with fan on into a dead quiet room - yes - I can hear the fan - and to me it sounds like blowing air out of your mouth to cool down hot food....
If I take that MBA with the fan on into the kitchen where the fridge is running - I cannot hear the MBA anymore. Or if the dishwasher is on, or the clothes dryer etc.....
I can only hear it is a dead quiet recording room. Subjective as it may be - it's perfectly acceptable to me.
I have almost never had to restart my MBA - usually only when a software update requires it - I just sleep my machine. OSX is rock solid. my MBA takes 27 seconds to load - every time. If i do need to shut down - it takes like 2 or 3 seconds.
I paid top dollar for mine when it was released and even though I could get it for $1000 cheaper now - I don't regret the money I spent. The solid MBA build and solid OSX are worth a lot to me.
If there's any more questions just post them and I'd be happy to answer.
