Boofhead Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hi, I was recommended to sign up to this forum based on a discussion I was having with a user on the whirlpool forum, specifically on the recommendation to talk with "Prema" as I'm told he is an expert when it comes to Clevo. So I hope this indeed finds you Prema Anyway, I have a P180HM which beep's and flashes some LED indicators for a couple minutes and then auto shuts down, exactly the same as in this video of another troubled user. Anyway, after some re-pasting and testing of CPU & GPU's , I managed to get the system booting to find no beeping and AIDA64 registering much lower GPU temps in the mid 30 degree's, both GPU fans register @ 100%. The system remained on for approx 25 minutes, until GPU1 reaches 50 degrees in which time the system would begin to beep and auto shut down again, during this 25 minutes the GPU spiked to 50+ and then dropped below this threshold and the beeping stopped, which brings me to the conclusion this is causing the issue. I've been told the system is unable to detect the fan's (hence displaying @ 100%) and the system assumes fan failure and auto shuts down. I've also been told I may need a modded BIOS, but no more information on this could be given, hence I'm here. Any information you can give would be greatly appreciated and thanks for your time.

James Michael Acierto Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 does the gpu fans increase their rotational speed along with temperature ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spellbound Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hey, glad you found your way over here. I hope @Prema can help you out with this issue and have your machine back up and running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't seem to have a sensor for fan speed, nor do I hear them spinning up faster as the temperature increases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Michael Acierto Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 even at startup ? could you check that all three fans are spinning freely and would increase their speed at power on for a little while maybe one of them are on their way out or have damaged speed sensors maybe ?

In afterburner I'm unable to adjust the fan speed for GPU1. I can however adjust the fan speed of GPU2, both still indicate in AIDA64 that they are running at 100%. I'm in communication with my reseller to get a replacement fan for GPU1 and hopefully that will fix it, but if you don't think this is the issue I'm open to more suggestions ?
