I have a HP ZV6000 laptop with 2 fans. I discovered the CPU fan stopped working & caused the computer to shut down. The CPU fan failed a 4.5v dc run test (maybe there wasn't a good connection, due to the tiny size of the wires and connector).
I replaced the fan with a tested good unit. On startup, both fans run about 2 seconds then stop. After another 2 seconds only the secondary fan starts and continues to run.
I asked a computer tech if software controlled the fans. He said "No". Of course he may not consider the bios as software. Is he correct?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
