Same problem I had.  I paid to have mine done.  Works like new again.

Hmonitor 4.4.3.1 shows CPU temperature, as well as hard drive temp.  Can someone please try out this software and post at what CPU temp their fan turns on?  Also, is there a way to adjust the temp when the fan turns on?  This s/w does not provide that funtionality.

I just had my power socket and headphone jack replaced (~ $200) but now my fan does not turn on.  It is running a lot cooler since the socket doesn't overheat anymore - it was loose and was causing battery charging issues.   I didn't know of this s/w before the repair, but after the repair I have seen the CPU temp rise to 78 C and still no fan.  The bottom of the PC is still not very hot....I'm just being paranoid!  IIRC when the PC was new the fan hardly ever came on either, but that was a LONG time ago and my memory isn't what it used to be!

Update: the tech forgot to plug the fan harness into the motherboard.  All OK now

I've have had this problem twice, each about a year apart.  Yes, a new battery solved the problem each time.

However, it has happened again recently.  A "new" battery this time did not solve the problem.  There is no way to tell if the battery I bought is indeed new, so I can't be 100% its not still a battery issue.  I plan to exchange the battery for another and see what happens.

FYI while the battery is in, the charger plug gets VERY hot.  If I wiggle the plug, sometimes the orange charging light will come on for a short time.  Then it flickers while making a high pitched noise.   I have 2 different power adaptors, 1 with a slightly longer plug than the other.  The longer tip plug is easier to get a charge started now.  I suspect a damaged internal plug.

You can buy a battery on e-bay for about $50.  Search using the "Replace" code printed on the battery.

More widespread than just x1k/zt3k I think.  Others with different (newer)cards/notebooks have had same problem even with older drivers!

Click on link in first post for screenshot of display.  Similar to what I saw in 5.7 - a ghosting, vert. sync type issue.

First, I'm glad this forum has resurfaced!

All flavors of 5.7 resulted in same problems you describe.  I have 1920 x 1200.

By "us" do you mean M9 chip users?
