How Much Does The Fan on Your 2.0ghz T30 Run?

If you have a T30 with the 2.0ghz processor, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know how often your processor cooling fan runs.  Mine seems to run nearly continuously. Does anyone know what temperatures trigger the fan to turn on and to turn off?
I tried Think Pad Fan Controller TPFC). Prior to installing TPFC, the fan ran 5 minutes on, 5 minutes off. After installing then uninstalling TPFC v21 the fan runs nearly continuously. I then installed TPFC v62, but get the same results whenever I let the BIOS control the fan. For example. the CPU is reading 37 degrees C, but the fan is still running. If you do use TPFC with a T30 laptop, and you are happy with it, please pass along the setting you use.
But in any event, I'd like to know what temparature settings turn the fan on and off in a 2.0ghz  t30. The specific model is 266-KU1.
Thanks in adavnce fo the info.

A couple of thoughts to consider here:
a) TPFC 0.62  is really not meant to be used on machines as old as T30. I use 0.25 and 0.33 on older P4M ThinkPads and it seems to work pretty well.
b) Do you have the latest BIOS and EC?
c) How many processes do you have running on a freshly booted XP?
Good luck and let us know.
Cheers,
George

    Hello,how much does the iphone 4 16gb unlocked cost if i want to buy it as a gift and to use it outside USA?

    If you're talking about buying the phone in the US, forget it. There are NO unlocked iPhones sold in the US and no US iPhone can be officially unlocked. Thus, it doesn't really matter what it costs.

  • How much does the 500 gb cost?

    There are older versions of the time capsule, how much does the 500gb time capsule ost & can it do just as much as the 1 TB?

    Both the 1TB and 500 GB versions are out of production, so you'll need to check the used market if you want one of these devices.
    Apple may still have some refurbished 1 TB versions with new warranty. Might be worth a look.

  • How much does the iphone cost each month

    How much does the monthly plan cost?? How do I find out how much??

    There is no monthly cost from Apple... the iPhone is a one time purchase cost.
    Monthly costs are for service from the carriers.  Contact the carrier that you intend to use and ask them.

  • How much does the screen brightness matter?

    I love my new Macbook, especially the beautiful screen. I find myself worrying about battery life, even though I know I shouldn't. I keep the screen at half brightness on battery, and 3 settings higher when it's plugged in. It looks nice, but I'd love to run the book on full brightness. How much does this affect the battery? Will half brightness really save me 20...30...40 minutes? Has anyone run any tests to see battery life at different brightness settings?

    Yes, one of the biggest consumers of power within your MacBook is the display. Why don't you find out for yourself what sort of differnce it makes given that experiences do differ. If you prefer to use your display at full brightness then do so. It is yours!

  • How much does the display move ?

    This is a stupid question but how much can the display be moved ? All the pictures that I see it appears that the display is at an angle. Can the display angled down ( like if I put it on a cabinet ) ?

    I can't find the actual numbers, but the display tilts I think about 10 or 15 degrees back from vertical, and a little less than that forward from vertical. At least mine is that way... the new ones may be a little different. I got mine last May.

  • How Much Does the Down Payment Help ?

     So Penfed denied me...but when they did they did not know the kind of car or how much I was going to put down. If I tell them I am getting a 63k car and putting down 30k....do you think that will make any difference ? That is a huge down payment

BUT regarding your penfed application, it depends on your decline reason. Down payments help with application factors like DTI and LTV. But they don't help with your credit score. So, it really depends on why you were denied. I suggest waiting for the notice of adverse action, or calling an underwriter to find out why you were not approved before you proceed with another application. There is a chance you can get a manuel review, change the collateral on the application directly with the underwriter, which means you don't have to apply and take another inq.

  • How much does the T420 weight? Very confusing info

    Hello all,
    The weight is a very important factor for me before buying, but no matter how hard i try I can't manage to get a concrete figure how much this T420 + 6 cell battery actually weights... Could some one who owns once weight it?
    One website writes (see hyper-link): 1.96 kg, Power Supply: 0.19 kg . But then it writes: 2.3kg. The lenovo specs sheet indicates 2.17 KG without telling if it includes the power supply, wheile on another sheet the same Lenovo website is listing the T420 weight with 6 cell battery as 1.9kg,
    On the wiki website it starts at 4.84 lbs (2.19 KG).
    Solved!

    That's just great. Thank,s so much.
    By the way, should i be worried that the 3 letters of the machine type i want to purchase on ebay do not appear on the itwbook you linked me too?
    I don't know what to tell you about that.  The tabook and ltwbook are for North America.  If you're not in "new york" the NA books may not be of much help with the details.
    It doens't look like the Western Europe versions go back that far except to show a generic 4180 as a withdrawn model - just based on age.  http://www.lenovo.com/psref/we
    I'd just be sure that the keyboard for that machine lets you type in your language of choce.

  • How much does the converted movies fill on iphone?

    As the Subjekt says I would like to know how much normal movies fill when the are converted. I've got some friends who has got the ipod video and they say that when the movies are converted they fill from 0,5 gb to 1gb
    Is that the same on iphone?
    if i would like 200 musicnumbers and 5-10 movies is the 8 gb then enough?
    hope to hear from you soon
    thanks...
    /Adam Juel-Blicher

    I put many movies on my iphone... currently have 650 songs, 3 full length movies and four 1/2 hour tv shows.
    Size of an encoded movie depends on two things: bit rate (bits per second) and movie length. I use 480x320(which is really 480x208) and 960bps and most movies are 800mb to 1.1gb. I have used the higher resolution of 640x480 and 1.6mbps and these yield movies around 1.6-1.9gb, but not a huge difference in quality that you can tell on the screen (only on a computer can you tell the difference - which IS noticeable).
    You can go low and encode movies at 320x240 (which is more like 320x176) and 600-700bps and probably be around 5-700mb per, but the image starts to become soft and you lose the sharpness that the iphone screen is capable of.

  • How much does the voice X1 remote cost and does it ad fees to your bill

    I have the X1 system. If I go into the comcast office to get one of the X1 voice remote is there a cost? And more importantly does it add fees to a person's bill?
