HI i recently bought N5010 i5, ATI HD, 4GB, because of my bios failure i got a new motherboard replace due to my warranty. I saw my laptop being opened and installed new motherboard but i noticed that, they did not put thermal paste in the cpu. first time the laptop shutdown due to overheating and again they put some thermal compound (old left residue from ATI Chip) and now it runs smoothly.
PROBLEM IS THE COOLING FAN SPINS IF THE TEMP OF CPU IS JUST 20c. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT ARE THE RIGHT CPU TEMPERATURES TO GET THE COOLING FAN TO SPIN. DO I HAVE TO REAPPLY NEW THERMAL PASTE? PLEASE GIVE ME SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE CPU TEMPERATURES AND FAN BEING STARTED IN DIFFERENT TEMPERATURES.
ALL n5010 USERS DO POST YOUR CPU TEMPERATURE POINTS WHICH FAN GET STARTS.
