I recently bought an hp pavilion 15 cs0006np and noticed the fans were always on. So I disabled "Fan Always On" on the BIOS. However, even when I wasn't doing much other than some googling, the fan would kick in. I then installed "SpeedFan" in hopes to be able to control at what temperature the fan would start working. To my surprise, hp doesn't allow this kind of manipulation... From what I saw, the CPU and GPU temperatures were fine, hovering around 30ºC, but the problem what's with the ACPI temperature, which I suppose to be the motherboard, which idle is at 45ºC and the fan starts working when it reaches 51ºC. I am starting to feel really disappointed with hp and this particular laptop, 6ºC margin to start the fans?! Seriously, I don't even start anything to hardware demanding and the fans start working almost immediately. Is there any way to choose the temperature at which the fans start working? Could you provide a BIOS update to select the temperatures? Honestly, I'd heard that people talked badly about HP products, but I chose to ingnore them, how foolish of me. If I don't get this sorted out, I'm never buying a HP product in the future, should have bought an ASUS, and I recommend that everyone buys laptops that are NOT HP!
