I have a NUC7i5BNHXF that crashes when I zoom out quickly in programs that use a lot of graphics and recalculation like Google maps. If I do that a little bit too fast I get a blue screen or the computer freezes. ALL my drivers are up to date through the

I will add the specifics of this computer. With the help of a special program I lowered the speed of the cooling fan somewhat because of the high pitched noise it was making all the time.

Hello @JKlin8​ 

1. Could be that your is crashing as result of overheating?
2. Please check the CPU temperatures. You may use for this a third part utility. For example HWiNFO64 https://www.hwinfo.com/files/hwi_614.zip . The CPU temperature you may monitor in Sensors part.
3. If the high temperatures are the reason for crash, please check if after disabling the application that lowers the cooling fan RPM, still the temperatures are high and the crash occurs?

Thanks Mr. Waksman I will check this out. The choice is tough because of the unpleasant sound of the ventilator in its original state. Kind regards, Joop Klinkhamer

Hello Joop,

1. Can't see results attached to your post. click on [cid:image001.png@01D5AC61.9259EDF0] does nothing.
2. Did you NUC crashed after disabling application that lowers the RPM?

I have to confess that is true. You are saying that the attachment I sent is not visible? Because I tried it the second time through the forum system.

Hello Joop,

1. Do not worry about the fan noise. First please lets us find if the overheating causes the system crash.
2. If the answer will be positive, I'll give you instructions, how to set the setting in BIOS to keep the temperature in range and eliminate the noise as well.

Regards

Leon
