    Anyone else getting fan issues with their R2?

    My fan won't turn off. It is constantly blowing cold air. I have tried installing different geforce and intel HD drivers, resetting bios, and nothing. The CPU is setting around 38-40c and the fan won't turn off even if its setting on a laptop cooler. what gives? Optimus says its disabled.
