Question: After installing and playing Minecraft, I shut the program down along with the computer. Afterwards, whenever I use my PC for anything the fan will run nonstop! This intern depletes my battery life significantly. What happened? Can THIS BE FIXED?!?!?!

Hi,
Dowload and install the latest Intel chipset driver from here.
Restart the system.
Dowload and install the latest Essential System Updates from here.
Restart the system.
Uninstall the ATI/AMD graphic driver first. Check the link below:

Download and install the latest HP driver for swichable graphic from here.
Restart the system and check the result.

ok, i did everything that you said: I dowloaded and installed the latest Intel chipset driver, I dowloaded and installed the latest Essential System Updates, and I uninstalled the ATI/AMD graphics. But with in the process of unistalling the ATI/AMD graphics, I was undable to complete the steps after the Installshield Wizard uninstalled the AMD Catalyst Install Manager and system start up.
What should I do? the fan still runs nonstop.
Thank you
