Windows 10: Update 6/17/22 - CPU fan at full speed and 13 un-requested restarts in 24 hours.

Windows 11 Pro.Brand new MSI WF66 with 11th gen i7 11800H octacore processor.A security update occurred in the early morning hours of June 17th.Since then, my CPU fan has been running at full speed constantly, and the system has re-started itself 13 times, including several times while I was just web browsing - not more than once on the same website.I am also now getting less than two hours of battery life in balanced power mode. Prior to the uddate I was getting more than 5 hours - same settings.Please do not ask me what I changed. I didn't change anything. I've been working with computers

W10 CPU fan not boosting to max speed

Hi Pablo,

Sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused.

We would suggest you to update the following items and check the cpu fan speed and performance.

Check if there is a program to control the fan speed, may be the controller program is not compatible with Windows 10. Also check for the below list and please update it:

• BIOS.
• Chipset drivers.

If you don't find the drivers compatible for Windows 10. refer to the motherboard manufacturer website and check for updated chipset drivers and install it.

BIOS Disclaimer:

Modifying BIOS/ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS
settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.

Hope this information helps, for further assistance please reply.

 

After 1903 update: CPU spikes and noisy fan

Hi,

after installing the 1903 update the fan of my PC gets loud while using common programs (even while browsing simple text websites).

Checking via task manager shows high CPU peaks... this didn't happend before the update, even the fan was only hearable while doing difficult renderings etc.

My configuration (with latest drivers of course):

• AMD A6-5400K APU with AMD Radeon HD 7540D
• 64 Bit
• 3.6 GHz
• 6 GB RAM
• 1000 GB HD (800 GB free)

The only workaround was reducing the cpu speed via "AMD Catalyst Control Center" to 2.8 GHz (which makes the PC slower of course).

Any ideas? Thanks!
