[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1006251, member: 46727"] And when you wear out the bearings on your Fan(s) and they need to be replaced, then what? Not withstanding the noise they make at full speed. :( I run Windows 7 from a Boot Camp partition and have no difficulty whatsoever with the fans. They operate the same way as when in Snow Leopard. Yes, they'll ramp up when I play DOOM but that's to be expected. I also use a Griffin Elevator notebook stand which helps to keep the machine cool. I would advise leaving the fans alone and not change the settings prior to booting to Windows. As I stated above, the fans are thermally controlled and should work the same way. Mine do. Regards.
