    I was afraid you might say something like that and I also suspect it, thank for your time. By the way the fan stooped again and this time I didn't exit the bios, I think it thinks it's april fools.

    Okay thanks for the info, but I tested the fan separately just to make sure it works I connected it to a battery and it worked fine.

    Reset the cmos, as in I took out the cmos battery which resets the bios. The speedfan was a long shoot since it started when I installed speedfan, but that might be coincidence. The fan starts when I start the laptop and stops after that, I imagine it's a system diagnostic making sure...

    When the laptop turns on, the fans start than stop working, windows boot's up normally but the fan does not spin. I have flashed the bios with the latest A12 version, I have reset the CMOS, I reinstalled the os, but still no changes. I measured the power coming from the pins when the system...
