Windows 10: Fan still running after shut lid and shut down

Hey guys,

I have noticed this problem come up on my Dell 7537 (Check out my profile for details) when I close the lid to put the computer to sleep, the HDD light turns off, but the fan continues to run, even after several hours. When I open the lid back up, it is just a black screen where I have to hold the power button to do a hard reset. The same thing happens with initiating a shutdown sequence, although that one only does it some of the time. Closing the lid does it every time. Anyone know what could be causing this?

Thanks!

:)

 

Laptop CPU Fan still running after Shut Down

Sorry that didn't work, Another solution worth trying is to right click on the start menu go to device manager and collapse the system device option and uninstall and delete the Intel management engine.Remember to delete the driver when uninstalling it.
After that go to control panel and locate System ,click on advanced system settings on the left hand side ,choose the hardware tab click on the device installation setting option choose the "No,let me choose what to do " option and under that choose the "Never
install driver software from windows update" and save the changes. This is to prevent windows from installing that driver automatically.

This is a temporary fix until new driver updates are released to fix the problem.This has worked on similar dell laptops hopes this works for you.

Problem Still not Solved even after software update.

Thank You for reply..

 

Go over all your Power Options again in the Control Panel, set them back to defaults if you have to, start from square one.

 

Well that appears to have worked. I just reset all of the power settings their defaults, restarted the computer, and now everything works.

 

Awesome, Glad I could help *Thumbs
