To turn down the fan on a Kiosk device, follow these instructions:
-
Open the Kiosk’s BIOS. To do this, plug in a keyboard into the Kiosk if you haven’t already. Restart the Kiosk and follow the commands on the screen before Windows Starts. It will have you press a button such as Esc to enter the BIOS.
-
Once you are in the BIOS, open the Advanced tab and go to Hardware Health Configuration.
-
There are a couple of settings here you will want to change. Here they are:
-
CPU Fanmode Setting: PWM Manually Mode
-
CPU WM Control: 80
-
System Fan Mode Setting: PWM Manually Mode
-
System Fan PWM Control: 080
-
When you are done, be sure to Save and Exit. Once you start the Kiosk again, the fan should be toned down and much quieter!
