fan is working almost all the time

[Robert Lafayette]

have had my ze4230 running over one hour. it is sunday morning, 18 april.
fan is/ has been running continuously, froma bout two minutes after i turned on notebook.

saved task processes a minute or two ago.

does this help?

fan is a bit noisy compared to my neighbor's HP notebook, different model, but much quieter. he even commented on consistency of my fan running and the noise.

hope you can read the pdf. file.

thanks in advance,
robert

For what it's worth, I think I'm having the same problem with a ze4300 P4 2.4 customized. HP support hasn't really been any help, and there's no BIOS update available for me. They suggested sending it in, but being without the notebook for a week + would be a huge pain. Is that the only recourse?

suggest you contact HP on line or call the 800 number.

i suspect there may be a defect with regards the fan, that is correctable by them only.

also you can contact HP via:
