Hi folks,
I replaced the system board in my T23, because it didn't charge the
batteries anymore. Now the fan stays silent, even if the CPU temperature
reaches 70 °C, which it never does with the old system board.
If I switch on the ThinkPad, the fan will run for a few seconds, like
it used to do with the old system board. But after this, it stays
silent.
I checked the BIOS and embedded controller versions, which turned out
to be old. I installed the newest version from the IBM website, without
any changes in the fan behaviour.
Any hints what I can do to get the fan working?
Regards,
Tino
