Troubleshooting Your Notebook

The sound of my notebook’s fan is too loud.

Use the PowerPanel™ utility to change the Thermal Control Strategy setting to Quiet. This setting slows down the CPU speed. See PowerPanel Help for more information.

Why does the System Properties dialog box display a slower CPU speed than advertised?

This is normal. Because your computer's CPU utilizes some type of CPU speed controlling technology, System Properties may display the CPU's current speed instead of the maximum advertised speed.
