I work from home on a remote desktop connection listening to the fan all day every day. I don't mind a very slow CPU but the fan is distracting. It sounds like a jet engine. I've tried:
- Setting HP command centre to quiet (not good enough)
- Notebook FanControl app, SpeedFan app (no effect)
- Setting windows power profile to 'passive'
I'd like to work without wearing ear plugs. Please help!
