    It hibernates when I play extended duration of a game. Is there any way to have the fan be on constantly? I don't hear it going off at all. I'm currently using Notebook Hardware Control.

    Yeah I know what you mean, and only when you hit the "change fan settings" function key you will hear the fan kick in. I would just recommend to be sure to have the notebook elevated...on something(s). I also like to have a small fan pointed at it when I'm playing games so I don't have to care about the fan...and also because the panel underneath the touchpad gets insanely hot.

    Okay, so... I put in on Silent Mode, and it seems to be working without a hitch now... Could I ask you to try the same and tell me, please?
