Hi @AtosLoveU,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

It sounds like you're experiencing a hardware issue with your HP Victus 16 laptop's back fan. If the fan isn't working properly, it could be due to various reasons such as dust accumulation, a malfunctioning fan motor, or a connection issue.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem.

• Check for Dust Build-Up: Dust accumulation can often hinder the performance of fans. Make sure to clean the vents and fan using compressed air or a soft brush.
• Verify Fan Settings in BIOS: Sometimes, fan settings can be adjusted in the BIOS. Enter the BIOS menu during startup (usually by pressing F10 or Esc repeatedly) and check if the fan settings are configured correctly.
• Update Drivers and Firmware: Ensure that your laptop's drivers and firmware are up to date. Sometimes, updating these components can resolve hardware issues.
• Inspect Hardware Connections: If you're comfortable with it, you can open up the laptop (if it's not under warranty) and check the connections of the back fan. Ensure that it's properly connected to the motherboard.
• Temperature Monitoring Software: Install temperature monitoring software like HWMonitor or SpeedFan to check if the back fan is being detected by the system and if it's functioning properly.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
