Is there anyway to change at what temp the fan should spin on my inspiron E1405. I it only goes on when it reaches like 70C I want it to go on before 70. Is this possible?
 
Maybe in the BIOS it might have settings, I know there is a App for macbooks that you can manually adjust, but I don't know of any for Windows, you should google it and see.
 
I looked in the bios, Dell doesn't offer any options for any customizing lol. Ever since I changed the thermal compound the temps are much lower and the fan never goes on anymore, only during boot up. Wish I could change it to go on at a lower temp now. I'll look around for something. Thanks

most laptop cpu fans are setup to the thermal temps to control fan speed.. only way to change them would be to do it in the bios.. but very rarely do they ever give you access to that.. its really not going to make a difference if its on or off.. laptop cpu's are rated for insane temps..
