I am having a Compaq Presario CQ40 having a Pentium dual core processor running at a max of 2.2 GHz. The main problem is that even when the system is left idle the processor is running at 65°C to 80°C. The processor is only being used 1% to 10%. And the first core seldom runs. I tried to change the location of the laptop and do other positional stuff and at last came to know that the fan is not ramping up. It is running at the lowest speed possible. I want to put the fan at max speed as I plan to keep this PC switched on 24x7. I don't care about the noise of the fan. I need help.
