Hello,

My computer took a nasty fall (one more) on my weights, and the fan has stopped running since! I restart it, everything works perfectly but the fan function on my laptop no longer works.

Simple question for a simple answer: Can I activate it manually on my computer?

Thanks in advance to the community!

    Is it a laptop?

    In any case, your fan may only turn on if your processor reaches a certain temperature.

    However, avoid burning it if the fan is really defective.

    Some software can check the temperature...
    https://openhardwaremonitor.org/ for example
