Hi @avver,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd be happy to help you! 

To control and potentially speed up the CPU fan on your HP Pavilion Laptop PC 14-Dv0000 (46P36AV), you have a few options, though it's important to note that not all laptops allow direct control over fan speeds due to the way their BIOS and hardware are configured. Here are some methods you can try:

HP Software

1. HP Command Center:
   • Some HP laptops come with the HP Command Center software pre-installed. This software may allow you to adjust thermal settings, including fan speeds.
   • You can download it from the Microsoft Store if it's not already installed.
   • In HP Command Center, look for performance profiles or thermal management settings that allow you to set the fan speed to maximum or adjust it according to your needs.

BIOS Settings

Some laptops allow you to control fan speeds through the BIOS/UEFI settings:

1. Enter BIOS/UEFI:
   • Restart your laptop and enter the BIOS/UEFI settings by pressing a key like F2, F10, or Delete during startup (check your laptop’s manual for the correct key).
   • Look for any settings related to fan control, thermal management, or performance modes. Adjust these settings to increase fan speed.

Hardware Considerations

Ensure Proper Ventilation:

• Keep your laptop's vents clear and clean. Dust buildup can significantly affect cooling performance.
• Use a laptop cooling pad to improve airflow and cooling.

Check for Firmware Updates:

• Visit the HP support website and check for any firmware or BIOS updates that might improve fan control and overall cooling performance.

Limitations and Risks

• Fan Noise: Increasing fan speed will lead to more noise. Ensure you are comfortable with the noise level.
• Warranty: Using third-party software to control hardware can sometimes void warranties. Proceed with caution and check your warranty terms.
• Overheating: If your laptop is overheating, increasing the fan speed might help, but it’s also essential to check for other issues like dust buildup or thermal paste degradation.

Summary

• HP Command Center: Check if your laptop supports this software for thermal management.
• BIOS Settings: Look for fan control options in the BIOS/UEFI.
• Ensure Proper Ventilation: Keep vents clear and consider using a cooling pad.
• Firmware Updates: Check for updates from HP.

By following these steps, you should be able to find a solution that allows you to manage the fan speed on your HP Pavilion Laptop PC 14-Dv0000.

If this does not help, I am afraid there are no other options. 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
