Fan controller issues
Hi,
My fan controller is on automatic and temperature works fine. However, about once a week the fans suddenly go up and down in RPMs from 5% to 100% and back again within seconds and some peripherals do not work any more (keyboard, mouse). The only trick is to pull the plug, press the on/off button 10 times and try again. Sometimes this works but quite often I need to do this several times before getting the PC running normal again. I'm not really a heavy gamer and the issues do not arise during games, but during normal usages.
Any ideas how to solve this issue? All software is up to date...
Thanks!

Hello ajwb,
For the issue with the fans, try uninstalling and reinstalling the command center, about the mouse and keyboard, I'll suggest that you test the system with a different keyboard and mouse to determine if the issue is caused by the peripherals or the computer itself.
