Can I manually turn on my fan?

OGTiago · Jan 23, 2009

My laptop is plugged in most of the time.

Is there a way for me to manually turn on my fan instead of waiting for it to automatically turn on?

I have a:
Dell Inspiron I1520
Windows Vista Home Premium

Have you looked at a utility like i8kfan? But I have to question why you would want to do this in the first place.

Hi,

AFAIK the fan is controlled by the motherboard. Although as for DELL I have read of a program that can do what you want in a similar manner:
