HELP...with FN45 noise problem
I recently bought a shuttle FN45 but I am finding the noise level totally unacceptable.
I cant believe it can be so noisy, my previous shuttle (SG45) was no-where near as bad.
This 'Smart fan' justs continually revs up and down even when the PC is doing nothing. I want to take it back to the shop and have it checked out but dont want to be without my PC for days only for them to tell me that there's nothing wrong.
Can anyone advise me what to do...fans, cooling options etc.(Or do you think the shuttle has a problem)?
This machine is driving me NUTS
Im running an Athlon 3200 processor and an FX5700LE AGP card.
The bios reports the CPU temp to be 46 degrees.
Can I disable the smart fan and just run the fan at a constant low speed?
