I have an Acer TM 632. Same problem. I had someone take a look at the DSDT file a while back and apparently the fan isn't controlled by ACPI, or something like that. I don't recall what the exact problem was. But I do remember fan + ACPI == not quite perfect. Ultimately my fan filled with cat fur and various other gunk and had to be replaced. It's much quieter now, but it still goes off on a fairly regular basis. emma -- Emma Jane Hogbin [[ 416 417 2868 ][ www.xtrinsic.com ]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
