My guess is that Win 10 is taking a stab at temps and fan states. I have a very old HP Pavilion with AMD cpu and Win XP. BIOS won't support USB boot so I never did try Linux on it. I probably could boot/install from the DVD drive but I use this laptop only to prove my ISP connection is at fault when the net drops, and not my main box. With no antivirus or firewall on the XP laptop it works great at verifying the incoming signal from the ISP. The fans on that Pavilion will ramp up pretty darn loud when running video / music files, and the such. The Pavilion also weighs something like 10 pounds with the power brick. ![:)]( "Smile")
