Information for
all readers: I owned this notebook for 2 days only. Therefore I can't
have a whack on something or give further information. I handed back
this notebook, because the fan starts every 1 - 2 minutes for approx.
20 seconds. It is a quiet fan and due to the Nvidia graphic chip a fan
noise was to be expected. But the permanent on and off makes me
angry. <<---
