skelter Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I installed the deadmoo image and the Maxxuss 0.5 patches on my laptop. I have a hp/compaq nc6000. Everything works like a charm except for the fan that is running continously. I've tried booting with both "platform=ACPI" and "platform=X86PC" but nothing helps. I´ve deleted the AppleTPMACPI kernel extension, this slowed the fan down when booting with the ACPI option, but it is still noticeable even when idle. Is there anyone who experienced this problem, or might have an idea about how to fix it. I have seen that there are others that successfully installed osx on nc6000, but none of these mentioned this problem. Any help is appreciated:) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3230-noisy-fan/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountain_rage Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 My desktop fans get quite loud which is supprising because I have a true power power supply. Its my power supply that controls most of the fans. Only the system fan is controlled by the motherboard. Thats controlled by my bios so I have no clue why mine gets louder in macosx Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3230-noisy-fan/#findComment-22364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EtherealRemnant Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Interesting. I just noticed the other day that run I'm running OS X, it kicks all 7 of my case fans up to full speed and 4 of them are supposed to be manually overridden by me!

systimax Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 how are you manaully over ridding them? My CPU fans runs full speed after OSX boots I would love to be able to slow it down somehow.

Any help is appreciated:) I have a nc6000 but not this problem, I boot without any option (ACPI is on). Try to take a look in the Bios if the problem is there: Speedstep: On Fan always on with AC use: Off Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3230-noisy-fan/#findComment-22640 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DVSoftware Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 guys if your fan don't stop, then it's a sign that CPU is overheating. right click on battery icon and set lowest settings (lowest cpu usage), my fan stopped that way... but after shutdown, and fresh boot. Warning: i don't know if it's just on my computer, but when i lower cpu speed, dock becomes very very slow!
