Laptop is HP Pavilion DM4-2153ca
Just did a fresh Windows 7 install (from scratch, didn't use recovery)
However I've been having the fans running constantly since then, for no reason, when the laptop is at idle. Task manager shows absolutely nothing special, at least not that I know of.
I also checked my antivirus and it's not doing anything in the background.
Needless to say it's also draining the battery.
I attached screenshots of task manager and HWinfo64. Help!!
P.S.: I've never had this problem with the Manufacturer's recovery W7 which I ran for the last 4 years. I also ran a fresh install of W10 on this same laptop for 2 weeks and didn't have the problem. However I had to revert back to a fresh W7 install because of driver compatibility issues.
