Asus Q501LA - Any way to turn off the fan?


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I bought this lappie to replace my old aging acer, and to get some sweet hardware accelerated aes encryption. On the old acer, I had a little tool to turn off the fan until it reached a certain temperature I defined, so it ran quiet with the SSD.

With the asus, I noticed the fan runs even with no load, with power save mode, and its a bit annoying. I thought maybe its a bit hot, so I applied AS5 to the cpu / gpu, and the temps are below 30c, but still the fan will run no matter what.

I tried some of utilities I know, but none of them recognize this mobo. I'm wondering if anyone has the same laptop, or some ideas on utilities that I could try to change this?

Thanks :-)
